Default Cellular Antenna?

Can anyone please tell me where the location of the CELLULAR antenna is on a 2020 a Disco 5? I believe the "shark fin" roof mounted antenna is just for SAT radio and GPS. And I believe the rear quarter windows are for AM/FM radio. Is it under the headliner somewhere, the windshield, or built into the module itself?
I'm asking because I want to use a signal booster and I have to be within 12 inches of it, and it will only work if the cell antenna is in the glass or somewhere inside the vehicle. Thanks for the help!

Seems like it would be easier to use something like a weBoost that your phone connects to directly for boosting signal. Can even have multiple users at once.

I agree! This unit is similar to a WeBoost, but this unit's internal antenna has enough range to pick up not only my cell phone, but the car's mobile data signal, too. It just need to be fairly near it.
