My Alpine set up has an internal antenna but recommends using the external antenna.

Nuvi has it's own antenna. Sirius antenna is velcroed to the underside of the trunklid.

I was wondering this too. I have a Kenwood that plugs into my DVD touchscreen, and it has a big *** antenna. Looks kinda like I will have to mount it on the dash in the corner, since I have a convertible.

the trunk does make sense, since it is fiberglass.
