Headliner removal

Whatsup All!

Does anyone know how I can take off the headliner for the 2015 TLX?
I had my roof wrapped and the shop couldn't do my fin antenna cause they couldn't take off my headliner. Now i have a black roof and white fin...
So just wanted to see if anyone had some know how on how to have the headliner removed or even just the fin removed.

Thank you!

The fin antenna is used for XM and the remote start.
To remove the fin antenna. On the inside of your car, remove the cover of your 3rd brake light. From there pull the roof panel down carefully and slowly. There are some plugs so it is not hard. Try not to pull out the pillar on both side. When you pull down the roof liner, don't BEND it too hard or else you will see some indentation of the liner. The hardest part is taking out the shark fin. You need to go all the way in on the back window to find the shark fin. I think you need a 12mm or 13mm to loosen the nut.
