    My 2016 Volvo D11 radio antenna cable, came out of the raido.. My question how is it but back in. I removed the radio, but the cable is to short, and can not be pulled out some and reinstalled.. I know the only way is to remove the cubby hole underneath, but how is that removed? I tried but with no luck.. I do know that there are two screws on to and bottom of the whole set up, but it appears if you take the whole thing out, again you can not insert the antenna as it again will not have enough slack.. So what would be the best way to accomplish this. Thanks..

    Might have pull a little harder or take some interior panels off and look to see where the cable is hung up on.

    That's my favorite truck right there. Unfortunately I never used the factory Cable in that particular truck since it only took me 5 minutes to bolt my antenna brackets to the rear fairings and fish my coaxial cable in through the hole underneath the bunk and Route the cable to the radio on the dash.

    From what I have seen, there are two pieces of molding one top one bottom, that need to come off, to expose two bolts top and bottom to pull out the whole caddy I guess is what you call it to actually get to the cable.. If you like do post those pics, I would appreciate it..
