TST 507 Repeater Installation Location

For folks that have the TST 507 repeater:

I just received my TST507 repeater because I was losing sensor signals. You folks that are using the repeater, where did you place it? Is it better to have it closer to the sensors or closer to the display?

I was thinking of placing it in my 5ver's basement, but was concerned that it may not receive/send signals as well. Don't want to mount it outside the rig if I don't have to.

What have you guys done?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I mounted mine in the front pass though and connected it to the marker lights. The whole system works much better now.

I have a 12 volt plug under my truck back seat. So I mounted my repeater to my back window using a double sided adhesive strip. I spliced a small rotary switch in the positive wire so I can easily turn it off and on without having to raise the seat to plug/unplug it.
