Default anybody ever removed the sirius antenna from the top of your truck?

I'm not renewing the free subscription for sirius, and I don't really want the antenna there anymore. I'm wondering if there is a hole in the roof of the truck for a wire or it's just stuck on there waiting to be pulled off. It may be a dumb question but I figured I would ask.

If there's no antenna, you didn't have sirius.

It still has Sirius, I just don't know where the antenna is. I'm not too worried about it, but it's something to think about.

The hole is about 3/4 inch and another 1/8 inch hole by it.The antenna is mounted by the third brake light on the roof.You can buy plugs to fill the hole in.

I'd just leave it. You can't hardly see it anyway. Why risk a leak.

if you are taking out the receiver and antenna I might be interested in taking them off your hands for the right price.

had to put aftermarket wheels on it. The only rubbing it does is if I turn the wheels all the way and back up, and that's only slight. It's getting a 6" lift at the end of the year.
