antennae on my window. I 'think' it is held on by glue..but i may be wrong. Any ideas how to remove it? I am thinking maybe a blowdryer and it may come off? BTW, it is for a phone, if that helps TIA

Default no i just did it....basically the same procedure as debadging your car

takes about 20 minutes to do both sides. i also found that carefully using a razor was the easiest way to remove the hardened glue
