   Yee, you get to it by removing the interior light from its plastic housing. You can do this if you are careful with a flat headed screwdriver, it just prises out.
   
   You'll want someone else to hold onto the aerial above the car if you're going to loosen/remove it.

   Don't know what your plans are exactly..if you're going to put it back on, clean around the area on the roof and then use tiger seal around the edge of the hole where the aerial goes, then get someone to hold it down firmly while you tighten it up again. Stops/cures aerial leaks.
   
   Hope this helps. No worries if it's irrelevant though.
