usually has a screwed retainer holding the antenna in the rear of the radio, not that it isn't possible to jiggle it loose anyway

other place to check is the passenger foot panel next to the passengers right foot

Mike, the KK's antenna isn't in the floor pan any more. Basically, it goes from the radio across the dash to the driver A pillar, run up the pillar along side the SCAB then makes a b line to the rear of the KK across the roof....
