How do you remove the interior lining? I also need to replace my rear-mounted aerial.

I'd assume actual antenna wire + a 12V line to power amplifier in the base

You need to pull the roof lining down a bit, then as you can see in this pict

 





The base has a bolt in it, there is just a nut which unscrews and the base should just lift off.
