Replacing antenna

Can't figure out how to get the old antenna out of the fender. I can disconnect it from the radio but how does it come out?

If it's an original you have to take off inner fender well and get it from underneath

Thanks. I've search on the forum on how this done and couldn't find anything. I'm pretty new at this. Is this a simple job and anything I should know?

very easy, make sure to fish a line out with the old cable.

Pinks you need to get a service manual, if you understand "lefty loosey and rightey tightey" it will make life a lot easier for you. Best money you will spend on the car.

The antenna will have to come out from under the top of the fender after you remove the hardware on the top. Simple task, just remember to tie a sting on the radio end of the cable...
