Today, we will go through the main instructions to remove and replace the radio antenna of the Volkswagen Golf. First, open the vehicle's bonnet and begin removing the roof lining, prying it gently at the edges (without damaging it); this will give you access to the inside of the antenna, as illustrated in the video.

At this point, unscrew the antenna nut and disconnect its electrical connector, pulling it out from the outside along with its base.

Replace it with the new one and reassemble everything, checking the radio's functionality.
