Shark fin antenna questions

I have the materials on order to wrap my roof in gloss black and I'm really excited for it. However there are a few things I'm nervous about, mainly dealing with the antenna. I have read it is relatively easy to get off the back of the headliner and then the fin on the sedans, but I have a coupe and am not sure how much different that is. Also, I saw on some other manufacturers there is a caulk-like seal you would need to put down, but I never read anything about that on an Infiniti and would like to make sure that is the case. Thanks for any input!

Headliner needs to come out. It's pretty fun in a coupe.

Uses a 19 or 22mm nut to unsecure it, then a gasket that goes outside.
Inspect your gasket for dry rotting, possibly buy this gasket before hand this way you can confirm that it will not leak. Great way to check your sun roof drains.

Thanks for the reply! Parts finally came in, going to be doing the wrap soon and hopefully the gasket isn't dry rotted!
