Removing the COMPLETE antenna assembly.
I searched high and low for a simple set of instructions that described how to completely remove the antenna, and all I got were threads about the simple twist off piece. I need to remove the whole assembly, I mean to the point where I have a blank hole in my quarter panel. Any help appreciated.

Unthread the antenna itself, then unthread the antenna base and pull I out from inside the trunk.

Hahaha forgot about this thread. I figured it out later that night after posting. Didn't get a chance to do a write-up, but I mounted the antenna to the interior chassis and had the hole filled and painted.

Is there any sequence to removing the plastic? or just a case of pulling the bit closest to the aerial?
Will be doing this weekend as long as the rain holds off

Hey do any of you know offhand if the hole this leaves is similar in size to the rear wiper?
Would love to snag a cheap wiper delete plug kit again... plug it up and be done w it that way..

With the weather we have been having, snow / ice, he hasn't made it to my job. We've been talking about it and I've sent him pics. I'm talking to another guy I know as well just in case one doesn't work out. They do their high dollar jobs first, which I understand. Sucks for me though hah
