***AVOID MARKETPLACE SCAMS!!***

I just installed mine as well. A few other instructions I'll provide.

1. To remove the OEM antenna on the inside trunk, there are 3 - 10MM bolts you need to take off. Once those are off, you will be able to maneuver the antenna out. Note, you will need to lift up a portion of the trunk carpet as every inch counts on the angle.

2. Once the antenna is out, there is a rubber grommet and other piece up inside the fenderwell that needs to come out as well. Be sure to pull that part out.

3. Once you hand tighten the top nut, test fit the antenna mast on the part so that you can ensure its straight and the preferred mounting angle is achieved. Once you're happy with the location, remove the antenna and then fully tighten the bolt with a 19MM socket (you will need a deep socket)

4. For the power splice, I used an "quick splice connector" which pinches the pink/white wire to the blue wire supplied. I did this so that this is reversible and I do not damage the OEM connector.
