I couldn't tell you where the best place to mount the Stratus but my Shinka came with Sirius and the antenna is mounted on the trunk right against the rear window. It a real inconspicuous place to put it especially if you have a spoiler

I would get the panavise bracket mentioned in https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/sirius-install-106039/. This is my 3rd Sirius radio I have used in my 8 and this is the best mount that I have used. I put the antenna where I did to minimize the amount of wire that would be exposed.

I did a fiberglass remake of the ashtray to hold my receiver. I love it...
