Do NOT bend your fender to get to the radio antenna. Take off the wheel of
whichever side the antenna is located, and inside the wheel well there is a
panel that is bolted onto the back side of the fender with I believe 6 bolts.
This panel could be covered with 24 years of dirt and grime and could also be
undercoated all to hell. The panel is sealed on its outside edge with a rubber
moulding. Take it off and you will have access to the antenna. I had to remove
and replace my panel with a new version. If you have any questions contact me
directly.

Hi everybody - thanks for all of your great contributions. I am
fairly new to the list and here is my first question:
With the recent discussion on radios going on, I have a related
problem. My antenna is disconnected. Someone once told me that I need
to remove or carefully bend the right front fender away from the body
(after unbolting a few bolts, of course) in order to access the
antenna connection. Correct? Or is there a simpler way?
Thanks,
Dave 75 TR-6
