Default Stock Nav Removal - Stuck - PLEASE HELP

Hi,

I'm in the process of removing the stock nav to put in a DNX-8120. I have the center console removed as well as the A/C unit, and I have removed the stock navigation. I still need to get the nav antenna off from the air duct area. Is there any way to do this without removing the entire dash.

Thanks,
Dave

If your concern is about removing it so you can sell it drop Gene Cully a PM and get a price on a replacement GPS antenna. They're not all that expensive and probably worth it to avoid tearing up your car.

I had no trouble at all removing mine from my 08 Z06.
Used a flashlight and a long screwdriver to pop out the plastic "rivets".
Took about 5 minutes!
