    Remove the plastic inner fender liner and disconnect the wire at the motor.

    I swapped out the power antenna for a regular one. Looks way better and cheap to replace.

    I bought a solid antenna from crutchfield-it came with plenty of cable to reach the stereo, it can be easily removed if you’re going through a car wash and I used the stock body plate to have the new one fit like the stock antenna.

    I like the stock antenna. Got one off of Amazon, cheap. Not real fun to install, not difficult..
    Just a pain in the ass and covered in that once white now black grease. It works great after feeding in the new plastic gear strip..teeth facing to the rear.
