I've searched for a DIY or how to and just can't find it. For those who have done this, how'd you do it? Thanks.

 

PM Jason@Riverside or Tony@Riverside one of them may know

 

You can use fishing string. Use it to cut the tape holding it on then use acrosol to remove the residue.

 

I took mine off. It is a magnet with adhesive on it to boot. I let my car sit in the sun for a few hours to get it hot, and I took a thin card (like a fake credit card you get in the junk mail) to start peeling off a side. It was not easy to get off, and there was some glue that I had to take off with Goo Gone. I did get a few scratches from where the magnet was stuck, but I put a different antenna over it, so no harm no foul.

 

If you happened to replace your antenna with a sharkfin one, where did you get it?

 

it came with car and is absolutely hideous. i have no idea where to get one.

 

There is no information in the 04 coupe AV manual about the sirius/xm antenna.

for an 06 sedan (shark fin) the service manual says to remove the headliner then remove a bolt (inside the car), then disconnect the connector and remove the antenna (bolt torque: 6.0Nm, 53 in-lb).

 

whoa that looks nice.

 

The 06 sedans have paint matched antennas. I am sure it would be possible to get them for the older coupes also...
