Default 08 RX XM Antenna

I read a long time ago here about a guy who had an audio tech install his XM antenna inside the third or center brake light on the RX liftgate. Does anyone know how to route this or can share photos or videos? I have mine currently mounted inside on the dash. I have an older model iSimple Gateway that may be contributing to audio cut-outs but I should finally move this antenna outside anyway but I want it hidden if at all possible. Was also thinking of trying to move it to the cowl piece under wipers which would be pretty hidden. Thanks!

My wife drives a 2010 IS that came with factory Sirius. What Lexus did was mount the Sirius antenna on the inside of the windshield to the right of the automatic rain sensor pod.

On my RX, I have an add-on Sirius radio tuner and I put the antenna up in the sunroof. The antenna sits loose on the inside sliding cover with enough wire so that it can be opened, but I don't use my sunroof so I don't care. If you look down on the top of the car, you can see the antenna through the glass. You can't see it from inside the car.
