To replace the antenna on a Volkswagen Golf, begin by removing the interior trim of the car's roof, using a suitable tool to pry it off: once the roof trim is removed, you can loosen the screws and remove the fasteners that secure the antenna from the inside.

This will allow you to remove the device from the outside, disconnecting the appropriate cable; once this is freed, you can connect the new device to the cables, reposition it in its place, and secure it properly from the inside.
