|  removing the sirius antenna My SLK has the Sirius antenna on the trunk, and I'm wondering if it's possible to remove that without damaging the trunk lid, etc. Anyone know? I'll be going with an aftermarket nav system and have heard the MB sirius setup is incompatible with aftermarket systems. I'm hoping to remove the antenna without needing to replace my trunk lid or do major body work on it. |

 | There is a huge hole where the sirius antenna pod sits, plus depending on the age of your car, you might have some fading and ring caused by the rubber gasket. |

|  You have the old style, larger, Sirius satellite antenna. Not sure how large the hole in the trunk lid is. You might consider replacing with the newer, small style antenna just to cover the hole if that works.
