How to remove antenna?

Help. How do you remove the antenna and antenna mount from from the fender body? Mine is loose and wobbling all over the place causing the paint around it to flake off.

Remove the antenna mast using a wrench on the hexagonal section at the base. Pry off the shaped black plastic base with a flat bladed screwdriver. The mount is attached to the body with three self tapping screws. Tighten them.

Thanks so much. I'm having trouble prying off the black plastic base with a flat blade screwdriver. I've tried it several different ways and I seem to be destroying the base.

Any tricks you can share?

If you're damaging it, I would suggest placing several vertical cuts in it with a utility knife, essentially cutting it off. A replacement is available at the dealer for a few dollars.
