You undo the nut on top carefully on top trying not to slip and damage it or gaurd. Then turn radio on and pull mast out and hope cord comes out with it if not you will need to remove aerial dismantle remove cord reassemble fit back to car turn radio on and feed new aerial into it. Some ford's use a stupid plastic shroud wich can be a mongol to remove

Don't even bother, take it in to get done. I had one of these dinosaurs back in 2002, tried taking the dang aerial out and ended up with the whole front guard off, put it back on and it wouldn't sit properly.

That would have been a mission all right. Taking the whole front guard off to get the aerial in the boot out. Pays to read post first.

I believe he possibly had the ute which has the aerial in the front
