Antenna Removal

Remove the radio antenna:

My MR2 has a manual radio antenna located on the driver side of the roof. To extend the antenna, the driver needs to roll down their window, and pull the antenna up. This is not a huge deal, but I never liked how the car looked with the antenna up, makes it look like a little RC car. I am replacing my entire sound system anyway, so I figured I’d get rid of the radio.

The first thing to do is to remove the two screws holding the antenna assembly to the roof. Then you can pull the antenna assembly out slightly. At this point you need to cut the electrical wire (black wire) to remove the antenna completely. Once cut, the whole unit comes out, and as you can see, there is a long plastic tube. This tube is a water drain for the antenna, which drains any water into the driver side wheel well.
