    It's pretty simple but you will have to check if you need male or female connector. I replaced the one on my Gul but the first aerial was the wrong connector so I had to go back to my local indy and swap it. This even caught the Volvo garage out.

    Is it not built into the rear glass somewhere?

    Whilst we're doing hunt the aerial iirc the c70s were in the bumpers, anyone know where p2s are? Was it rear window or was that sat nav.

    C70s have an electric aerial, but maybe there's a secondary diversity aerial in the bumper cos there are "Main" and "Sub" aerial connectors on the back of the radio.
