Oh yeah, I did that. Forgot what I did. It involves a bolt in the trunk, and I think unscrewing the black cap on top some how. Just take some tools and go to town on that bitch. If you're unhappy with the hole, blue masking tape is a great match for our mariner cars

yeah, i did remove the bolt in the trunk and i did remove the cap at the top but its still holding on. So i am wondering if its just seized in there and i need to knock on it harder. Does it come from the top or from the bottom? I dont want to put a dent into the quarter.

Yes, and he is not, he hasn't had enough Miata time lately I believe it comes out from the trunk once you take everything off.
But seriously, Just go out there with a flashlight for the trunk and start taking stuff apart, it'll come.

you could always take the whole assembly out and cover the hole with the rubber plug on the bottom of your trunk. or grab one of those from s13 trunk bottom or one from wrecker.
if you remove your own one from ur trunk ur gona have to find a replacement since its gona be a dead hole to the ground lol.

Ground as in ground ground. like earth. lol
cause if you remove those rubber from bottom of your trunk, its just hole so u can see the concrete.
and you could use that rubber plug to plug up empty antenna hole.
seals it up good. no leak.
those 2 plug things u see just before the heatshield for exhaust
