Step 1: Choose a Location for Your Radio
When installing the Starmate 5 in your vehicle, choose a location where it will not 
block your vision, interfere with the controls, or obstruct any air bags. The location 
should be easily accessible and provide good visibility of the display, and should 
not be located where it will be in direct sunlight, which will affect the visibility of 
the display screen. 
Several examples of the Starmate 5 mounted in a vehicle are shown: A is the on 
dash method using the Dash Mount, and B is the vent clip method using the Vent 
Mount.
