Default power antenna replacement/ fix

Does anyone have good directions on replacing and/or repairing the power antennaon a 1999 vert? I looked at it and it seems like a PITA to get to but maybe I just am not seeing the easy route to get to the antenna assembly. I can do the repair or replacement as needed, I just cannot see (old eyes) how to get to it without removing wheel wells.
Thanks in advance.
Woody

Here is some directions how I fixed mine. The problem was it was not going all the way down...

You take it out of the car through the right rear tail light... you access the harness from inside the right rear of the trunk. YOu need to remove the carpeted panel to access the connection....
