Do you mean the antenna itself? There is a metal bar in the back of the dash that you can see if you take out your head unit. I placed the magnetic antenna on top of the bar and wedged it between some wires on the right side.

The "metal bar", I take the head unit out but can't find which metal bar you mention. For now I haut place the GPS antenna on the right side of the head unit. Kinda lag when it is try to find location.

I was gonna say both the gps and the usb connection are right next to each other on the bottom. I just recently installed mine. If you guys fix the plugs it'll start working. The top gray connector (similar gps connection) and 16pin connector above is for euro/other model so those two are left out.
