Yeah it pops right off. The only things holding it up are like those 2 plastic circle things that you can see on the left and the right
Do you have to remove any of the pillar? Can someone do a diy ?

I've got it done and know what to do. I can send you better info tomorrow with pictures . The cable for the fin actually runs down all the way to the pilar on the passenger side rear seat so it's kind of a pain.
Can you help me with headliner/shark fin removal?

I got a hatchback. Got some pics to share? I wanna wrap my roof
ill take some tomorrow. its nothing complicated to do though. just remove the back passenger plastic panel where the door meets. then pull the panel that hides the seat belt mechanism. and youll see a thick wire. if youre not sure which, open the hatch and remove the middle plastic trim panel at the top of the window , pop it out. take the screws out of the back dome light and remove the housing from the liner(it should just dangle from its wire) and that will allow you to pull the roof material down from the trunk area to see the fin wire. its kinda weird to explain but if you check your car youll kinda understand.

The whole thing needs to be removed, including the wire. I tried without taking it off completely and ruined my wrap lol.

How long was the wire and is it easy to remove and put back?
Hmmm I think the wire is probably about 12-15 inches. And yeah just some annoying clips holding it in lol. Kinda sucks to take out but easy to put back I.

Can you post pictures on how to remove the shark fin antenna. I have a hatchback and planning on wrapping my roof
This isn't the best way to show it but its something, i've been sick for a few days and not really feeling like opening everything up in my car. so hopefully these instructions help a bit. if you have questions let me know.

(IF PICTURES DON'T WORK, GO TO BOTTOM OF MY POST FOR LINKS.
