Installing the Antenna  
Installation  
The antenna includes a plastic cable cover/  
tail which covers the exposed antenna  
cable and keeps it attached securely to  
vehicle roof. The tail also helps position the  
antenna the proper distance from the rear  
window, sunroof or rear hatch.  
It is recommended that prior to starting the  
installation, you read completely this  
installation manual and follow the guidelines  
listed below:  
Consider the mounting location carefully.  
You should make sure that you avoid the  
following:  
To attach the cover/tail:  
• Any location where the tuner is  
exposed to moisture.  
• Any location where the tuner is  
exposed to extreme heat.  
1. Once you have determined the proper  
mounting location (see the next  
section), clean the area with the  
supplied alcohol swab.  
• Any location that would interfere with  
moving parts on the vehicle or interfere  
with driving.  
Mounting the SIR-ECL2nt tuner  
Be sure that you find a location that is flat and  
has clearance above the tuner to  
prevent any damage, as well as allow for  
ventilation.  
Do not install the tuner under the carpet or in  
a small enclosed area without proper ventila-  
tion. Doing so can result in damage to the  
tuner or the vehicle. Use the supplied screws to  
securely fasten the unit.  
2. Connect the antenna cover/tail to the  
antenna cable, making sure that the  
strain-relief on the antenna seats into  
the cover/tail groove. Route the cable  
through the wire channel in the cover/  
tail.

Optimum Antenna Mounting Locations  
The optimum location to mount the antenna  
is on the roof of the vehicle. It is important to  
avoid any obstruction that will block the  
satellite signal, such as a roof rack. For  
convertible vehicles, install the antenna on  
the trunk lid as shown.  
Sedan/Coupe  
• Place the antenna on a metal surface  
of your vehicle at least 12” x 12”, and at  
least 6” from a window. (Use the  
antenna cover/tail as a guide for the  
proper distance from the rear window.)  
• The antenna’s magnet will secure it to  
the metal surface. The adhesive that is  
attached to the antenna cover/tail will  
secure the cable to the vehicle. Before  
routing the antenna cable, confirm that  
the antenna is mounted in a suitable  
location.  
SUV/Mini-Van  
Truck  
Convertible (only)  
• Route the cable from the antenna to the  
vehicle’s interior by tucking it  
underneath the rubber molding around  
the rear window, if possible.  
• Route the cable from the lowest point  
of the rear window into the trunk. Take  
advantage of any existing cable  
channels or wiring conduits.  
• For SUVs, minivans and five-door  
vehicles, bring the cable into the  
vehicle under the rubber molding of the  
tailgate, and continue under the interior  
trim.  
Caution:  
• From the trunk, carefully route the  
cable to the location of the  
SIR-ECL2nt and plug the SMB  
• Do not pull the wire across sharp  
edges that could damage it.  
• Keep the wire away from areas where it  
could become tangled in the driver’s  
and passenger’s feet.

• Keep the antenna wire away from  
extreme heat, such as exhaust systems.  
• Avoid placing the cable near any  
moving parts.
