You have to drop the inside trim and headliner, i had my roof paint it gloss black and the shop need to remove it and they charge me $ 100 more for removing it.
Just finished having my roof wrapped gloss black... The guy ended up just wrapping the antenna on the car without doing all the removing anything inside.

They had to remove my,because they don €™t want it to paint the seal .
So upon further investigation by my roof wrapper the antenna is a cap that can be popped off! Again I say the antenna is a cap that can be popped off, it is held by pressure clips! No need to drop the roof liner...

Thank you RVA Graphics & Wraps of Richmond, VA!!!
I was able to pop off the plastic cap but the entire antenna assembly cannot be removed. There are two layers of screws that can be removed but the metal bracket is probably held by screws from the interior of the vehicle. Basically, no way to remove the entire antenna without dropping the headliner.
Nissan Maxima 8th gen Roof Antenna
When putting it back did they apply glue or anything? I cannot find any plastic screws holding the headliner so wondering can i just pull it apart. Scared to damage it and there is literally no info on the web about this for the 8th gen.

P.s. your Maxima looks gorgeous.
Finally managed to remove the roof antenna. Pulled down on the headliner. With some pressure the invisible clips will release. This allows access to the antenna bolt. Used a 22mm (7/8") socket and ratchet to remove the antenna bolt. There is a plastic clip on the antenna which needs to be released. Tried for a long time but was unable to release the clips because of very limited access to antenna assembly from the headliner. Pulled on the antenna and unfortunately the clips broke. I believe this does not affect functionality because the antenna will still be tightened to the roof by the bolt removed earlier. Then disconnected the cable and voila the entire antenna assembly can be pulled out. No need to pop off the cap or unscrew anything else. Got the idea from this video on youtube, the only one i could find specific to the 8th gen. Go to 18:53 in the video-
Sorry to bump an old thread, but anyone have any guides/instructions on how to remove the headliner to get access to remove the antenna? looking to wrap my roof myself

Last I checked, there was no guide. I tried to describe the process in my previous post. Its straight forward mostly. Start by pulling on the liner at the back end. And watch the video at around 18:53.
