2002 Toyota Celica removing the antenna

Reach into the trunk and unplug the antenna cable. It is the cable that plugs onto the side of the motor pack. Then unbolt the hanger strap nut. Push the threaded part back out of the hole to release the assembly from the frame.

Take a pair of needle nose pliers and wrap your hand around the pointed ends of the pliers to hold them in the notches of the antenna. Hold down ring on outside of car. Do this CAREFULLY to prevent slipping out of the notches and scratching the paint. I

Once the ring is loosened, remove it by unscrewing it from the assembly by hand. You should be able to pull the plastic part off and the rubber body seal gasket. Unplug the electronics by pushing in the white plastic tab on connector and pull it apart. Push hard on tab and again separate connector.

If you need further assistance just let me know.
