Q: How to Replace an Antenna Cable for a Digital Radio on Cadillac XLR?
A: Begin by accessing the antenna cable connectors through the trunk area cloth cover after which you should cut both ends from the antenna cable adjacent to the digital receiver. Begin by detaching the right front IP closeout panel together with the right front carpet retainer followed by the loosening and setting aside of the right side door manual release lever.

After processing the left front carpet retainer and parking brake assembly follow up by seeking the harness on the left side of the IP then detach the digital antenna connector before cutting the body side connector away. Installation involves guiding a mechanic's wire through the IP/center console space to bring the left antenna cable end to the left side of the IP by following the original cable route. The installation requires pushing the new connector through the plastic seal by the left side pillar to door pass-through before reconnecting then resecuring the plastic seal with necessary tie straps when securing the new antenna cable beneath the left dashboard side. Reconnect the left and right IP pillar to door pass-through connector while making sure to properly secure the seal at each location. The new antenna cable must follow the original cable path behind carpeting to reach the digital receiver by using required tie straps for stability and then reconnect the cable to the digital receiver. Complete the installation by putting back the right side door manual release lever along with the right side IP closeout panel, right front carpet retainer and finally the right side lock pillar trim and the left front carpet retainer and the parking brake assembly.
