C30 General : - Aerial removal

Hi all,

I'm wanting to wrap my roof using black vinyl, does anyone know how to remove the aerial from the roof??

Thanks

yes it is glued on , you will need a new shaped sticky pad to refit it or it will soak the headlining when it rains .

It is glued AND clipped on. To get to it, to undo the clip, you have to remove quite a lot of parts inside and drop the rear end of the headlighter to get to the clip to remove the fin...

Wow that sounds like a hassle!! Might just cut around it with the vinyl and have a white aerial!!

Don't think it would look too horendous!!
