    I would just get a VE style 'bee sting' arial. Its a roof mount thing but I think makes it look a lot better.

    yeh the plug/connector is just inside the passenger kick panel (l/h side, closest to the door), remove that and you will see the antena plug there. haven't replaced mine but i need too, shouldn't be too hard though.
