You must remove the seal from the top ofthe hatch and carefully peel the
headliner until you can get to the antenna. You will want to remove the
support beam, or whatever its called to gain full access to the antenna's
underbelly. The pain is putting it all back together. Just get some
headliner adhesive to reglue it on assy.


>Is there a way to remove the antenna from the topside?  

Id say "NOT" but someone would dissagree in jest. You can, but it would
make a terrible hole in the roof. Theres only one way to get to it with
no damage.

Once you get the headliner down, it will all make sense. Maybe? Sure.  :)
