The antenna hook-up is behind the panel between the rear glass and the driver's side rear door (the panel with the reading light). To remove the panel, pull off the door seal trim around the rear driver's side door around the panel and the panel should slide towards the front about an inch. The panel should now come off, pull slowly since you will need to disconnect the electical hook-up for the map and interior light. The antenna cable should hook to a 2" x 3" metal module.

My antenna seems to have gone bad. At this point I have to install a normal antenna. Does anyone have a recommendation as to a good antenna and also where do I find the connection to the rear window so that I can attach to the new antenna?
Thanks
