Hello All,

I just installed a Viper 791xv alarm into my car.  Its great!!!  One question, since this is my first time ever installing an alarm, I wanted to know where is the best place to mount the antenna?

As of right now, I have it located right underneath the dash, behind the glove box.  I dont know where the typical place is to mount an antenna, but the wire is very long and I was thinking I could mount it inside my roof.  When I am in my office at work, I do not get any signal whatsoever.  I am not ever that far, although I cant see my car, but whats the point of having a Pager Alarm if you dont know what the status is if your not connected?

Your thoughts and opinions please.

viper recommends mounting it in the center of your winsheild, on the glass by your rear veiw mirror.
