In this video, we will see how to change the antenna base on an Opel Astra or Zafira. To change it, you will need to remove it from underneath by accessing it through the seal on the tailgate.

Next, detach the rear lining of the vehicle to reach the area where you can disconnect the antenna and its cables. You will only need to remove a small washer.

You can find the replacement part, for example, on neryuscarparts.com with the code 20221125-000088 for £30.99 (base + antenna), including delivery. Before fitting the new part, it is a good idea to clean the area to ensure a clean base for reassembly.

Finally, reconnect the cable to the electrical connector and tighten the securing washer. Now, you can refit the lining you removed and the tailgate seal.

Job done.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
