Hi there!

I wonder if anyone have an instruction on how to remove the GPS sharkfin antenna, i have elready removed the c-pillars but the headliner seems to eighter be clipsed or glued to the roof-structure...does anyone know?

I am more interested to know why you are bothering to remove the fin? Seems a very strange thing to do!!!

..................to be able to paint it to match the body-color perhaps?

I thought they were already colour matched?

(See my post 'Pictures at last' which shows mine in 'Ice Silver' already colour matched)

What colour is your car / Antenna?

Have you been shortchanged as my fin is matching ibis white - maybe it's an S-line perk???

Mine is body colour on an SE, and I don't even have MMI! So why do I even have one if, as the OP said, it is for GPS?
