Im not sure how the my gig antenna works but my JVC nav unit has the square antenna that I used to have mounted to a magnetic strip on my plastic daystar upper dash panel. I just stuck it right to the backside of this pod and it works perfectly...... no magnetic strip required since the unit is metal..
is the my gig similar?

Does your Jeep have the "evic" with the compass? The piece that you replaced with the guage/switch cluster...on mine, that is where the compass antenna is located (it is attached beneath the factory top molding piece). If you have the compass, was curious if you had to relocate that antenna, and if so, how?
Love the set up! I want!

Yes, I have the compass that was mounted under the factory console top.
I just got some heavy duty velcro and slapped it on the inside top of this gauge pod.
Works great, no interference what-so-ever.
I really don't believe that there is enough metal above it to really disrupt anything.
My stock compass and navigation work great even in the garage with the door shut as well has very heavy thunder storms.
