Yes you have to remove the A pillar trim inside & trace the coax through. It is covered in a thin spungey foam and I think some tape or clips .Tape on some string/wire as Frank says other wise very hard to get back down. I had to use a N14 Pulsar one (telescopic type) and slightly redrill the 2 roof mount holes. Pulsar coax seems better but K11 solid ariel is stronger ? If you can get good K11 one test first.G/Luck.
