Replace antenna base on 66 442

I need to install a new antenna base and mast on my 66 442. It looks like I need to remove the cowl or maybe the inner wheel well I am not sure. Please let me know how to install this it would be greatly appreciated.

You need to remove the wiper arms and the wiper panel. You can then access the base of the antenna mount. Unscrew the black **** to remove the mast.

Many moons ago when I changed antennas I loosened the mast nut and the braket under the fender swung around and the antenna pulled up through the hole. I would cut the old coax and strip back the wires and wrap the new plug with them and tape it. Then I would pull the old coax from the passenger compartment to guide the new cable though. Then remove the tape and the old wire and connect it to the radio.

Randy I found it in the assembly manual 1.4.2. Just the 5 small bolts I thought there was another 5 bolts on the other side. Thanks again that looks easy enough.
