Any information about hooking a Treo 650 to the sharkfin cellphone antenna?

Can someone take pictures of what it looks like inside the fin? Also do you have navigation?

I'm pretty sure it's held on with some kind of adhesive. I also remember a member here having theirs stolen once so I'm sure the thief didn't go inside the car and unbolt anything. The fastening screws are probably for the antenna base. Please post back when you get it off so we all will know.

The sharkfin is bonded to the roof with the same adhesive used for the front and rear screens and has to be cut off using a sharp blade if you have bluetooth in your vehicle you also have gps antenna and vice versa if you have sat nav and no bluetooth it was the same part for both
Make shure you mask off the roof well if cutting off the sharkfin as it sits in a recess and it is very easy to scratch your roof removing it i had mine re-bonded to the roof by a local windscreen fitting company but you could do it yourself using tigerseal ect. I do not recommend using double sided tape as you will end up using your fin
