What plug? I know pulling the fuse doesn't work with the premium sound factory upgrade.

There is a white plug that goes into the antenna motor, just unplug it

Where is this white plug located? In the trunk behind the carpet on CD changer side?

I did tell you but to be more precise.... Look behind the carpet where the antenna is, you will see the antenna and the motor attached to it, look for the wires going to it, the white plug goes directly into it

Default Thanks to Roy

I just took Roy's suggestion and pulled fuse #9, disconnecting the power to the antenna. Wow is it ever nice to not have the antenna come up when using the CD, cassette, or ipod through the cassette adaptor. I also found that I have no trouble picking up the local FM stations I like, without the antenna. I am sure if I was going across country it would not work well, but then I would probably be using CD's or the ipod.
