Don,

For radio point of view, antenna is OK.
The cable will be ok also (Extension cable lenght will reduce signal strenght, but i dont think it will be a problem)

This is a amplified antenna : you will need also to power it (+12v)

My worry is on the windshield itself : This kind of antenna is forecasted to be installed on the internal side of the windshield. Since few years, OEM windshield includes some metallic coat to avoid too much heat in the car (act as an heat insulating). But this coat acts also as radio wave insulator : In this case, the antenna can not be installed here (bad reception).

Dan, is the SLK windwscreen is "athermic" (i don"t know the exact word in english) ?
