How to Change the Antenna on a Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini Countryman1, R60 - Years 2010-2016
Part: Antenna

The antenna on the Mini Cooper is supported by a single screw located beneath the roof's bodywork. To replace the antenna, you need to gain access to this screw by removing some parts inside the cabin. Specifically, you must dismantle the rear plastic pillars, which are clipped in, and the handle located above the window. Now, remove the two rear clips that support the headlining and unscrew the bolt at the base of the antenna. Remove the old antenna and install the new one using the same procedure in reverse.
