bmw e38 antenna removal

A tutorial on how to remove the antenna from the top of your BMW e38 and clean it up. Plus, I show off the new roof magnet.

As you may know from a previous video one year ago, after the installation of the new windshield, when it rains constantly for days or violently for even a short period if time, my interior (front right) begins to fill with water. After a failed attempt to blow a clog out from the drains with compressed air, it is now assumed the silicone securing the windshield to the car has clogged the sun roof drains, causing water to back up into the car's interior. This has flooded my glove box more than once. Soaked the floor, and caused the car to crank but not start. Securing a large magnet to the roof that covers the sun roof has fixed the problem.

The old magnet blew off the other day after driving 80 mph on the highway. It was 24" tall x 40" wide. It provided minimal grip. This new magnet is 32" tall by 42" wide. It provides 2.6 square feet more magnetic grip surface and should not blow off.
