After selecting a location for the unit, place the unit so that the centerline
of the dome is on or parallel to the centerline of the vehicle. The centerline
of the dome runs from the point between the two back feet where cable
connections are located to the opposite point directly between the two front
feet. Position base so that cables exit toward the rear of the vehicle.
