Toyota 86 How to Remove the Roof Antenna

It’s not a big deal, but it’s a work memo. I removed the roof antenna to do something a little this time.

3 clips

If you know how to remove it, you can remove it in 5 minutes. It took me 15 minutes by trial and error.

First, remove the three push-type clips that are fixed to the top of the rear glass. If you remove these three clips, you can flip the interior a little and insert your hand through the gap to remove the antenna. There is no need to remove the interior of the C-pillar.

Push type clip

This time, I had a hard time removing this push-type clip. If you know the structure, it’s easy to remove. Insert something like a flat-blade screwdriver into the gap between the white and black parts and pry it to unlock it.

Remove the hexagon nut-shaped special screw with a monkey wrench or the like. After that, you can remove the antenna by pushing the plastic tab of the red circle and pulling it out from the outside. The work is completed.
