Connecting a satellite Dish

Anyone know how to snake a coax cable to the satellite receiver in my Cruiser ? Apparently you can't go through the existing cable TV connection - I am Leary of drilling holes under the tv cabinet to get it to the outside and out to the satellite dish (egg -type). ANyone know how this is done? (Dish TV sat).
Thanks,
Max

On my cruiser there is a hook up in the basement for the Satellite. It is on the drivers side. There is a plate with covers (Fold down) In the very top. One of the hook up is for Cable the other is for Satellite. Than there is an out let in the tv cabinet for the satellite seperate from the antenna cable

I ran some (non coax) wires through the floor in the back corner of the cabinet under the TV with no problems. I sealed around the wires with silicon.

I had a dealer install of coax through the roof that was nothing but trouble and was never resolved as long as I owned the unit.

Connecting through the factory sat hook up is the way to go for a portable dish.
