To remove the antenna mast, use an antenna wrench or a small open-end wrench to unscrew it from the body, and installation is the reverse of removal. Begin by removing the antenna mast, then take out the glove box. Disconnect the antenna cable connector from the extension cable by lifting up the clip, and remove the right kick panel. Loosen the right front wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and remove the right front wheel along with the splash shield from the right front wheelwell. Inside the wheelwell, locate and remove the rubber grommet insulator in the upper left corner, then pull the antenna cable through the grommet hole. Using an antenna wrench or a special "cap nut" socket, unscrew the cap nut that secures the antenna base to the front fender, being cautious not to scratch the paint with pliers. Pull the antenna assembly down into the wheelwell and remove it, with installation being the reverse of removal. The extension cable connects the antenna cable to the radio; to disconnect it, remove the glove box, then disconnect the extension cable from the antenna cable by lifting the clip. Detach the antenna cable clip from the small bracket on the heating/air conditioning assembly, and remove the radio to disconnect the extension cable from its backside, with installation being the reverse of removal.

Disconnect and isolate the negative cables to prevent accidental contact with the battery negative terminal. Use a small open-end wrench to unscrew the antenna mast. In the right side interior kick panel area under the instrument panel, disconnect the antenna cable from the cable lead. Raise the vehicle and securely place it on jack stands, then remove the front right wheel. Remove the right fenderwell inner panels to access the antenna base by prying out the plastic retaining clips and removing the screws that hold the lower end of the fender panel, then take the panel out. In the right fenderwell, detach the grommet and carefully pull the antenna lead and grommet from the fender panel access hole, then remove the antenna retaining nut and the antenna assembly from the fender, ensuring not to lose the antenna adapter in the top of the fender opening. For installation, reverse the removal steps, aligning the antenna adapter tongue with the fender hole and pushing it into place.

Disconnect the cable(s) from the negative battery terminal(s). For the radio antenna, remove the right-side kick panel/threshold trim panel. Working in the right kick panel area, disconnect the antenna side of the cable from the radio side of the cable. Disconnect the antenna cables. Tie a piece of string to the antenna end of the cable. Unscrew the antenna mast from its base using a small wrench of the appropriate size. Remove the base retaining nut and the antenna base using an antenna wrench available at auto parts stores. Open the passenger's door, then pull the antenna downward and out. Don't allow the pull cord to come out. If you're installing a new antenna, tie the cord to the end of its cable, then use it to pull the cable through the body panels. Ensure that the rubber grommet is fully seated. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal. For the satellite radio antenna, the rear of the headliner must be pulled down for access. Because this requires the removal of several interior trim panels, we recommend that you have this procedure done by a shop familiar with this type of work. For the navigation system antenna, remove the radio. Disconnect the antenna from its bracket and remove it. Installation is the reverse of removal.

The antenna upper mounting nut can be unscrewed using special sockets available at most auto parts stores, or with a pair of needle-nose or snap-ring pliers, taking care not to scratch the paint.

Remove the glove box, then disconnect the extension cable from the antenna cable by lifting the clip.

Disconnect the antenna mast cable's coaxial connector from the instrument panel antenna cable connector.

The next step is to work under the vehicle to remove the three plastic rivets from the rear edge of the inner fender splash shield.

Tie a piece of string to the antenna end of the cable. Unscrew the antenna mast from its base using a small wrench of the appropriate size. Remove the base retaining nut and the antenna base using an antenna wrench available at auto parts stores.
