Default Sat radio receivers, where to hide?

Buying a kenwood sirius sat radio receiver, was wondering where all you guys mounted your receivers, XM or Sirius? (my head unit is sirius ready) just need a place to mount the box. Oh, and do they need power? the ones I looked at didn't seem to have a power hookup.

Mine is located in the dash, just to the right of the head unit.

I don't actually have the receiver yet it's on order, is it really small enough to fit in the same space as the H/U? Or have I misunderstood?

the tuner is about a 4x4 inch square, its not hard to hide. It also has about 5 feet of bus cable....so you don't have to have it behind the radio
