    Does anyone know the how the AM/FM antenna lead is routed through the car? I'm guessing it doesn't run up through the windshield post since there is an airbag in there. I'd appreciate any information.

    The antenna lead appears to go up the A pillar
    [attachmentid=11859]

    Then along the roof line, above the right rear door to the center
    [attachmentid=11860]

    (These are not my pictures but from another post where user applied insulation in the headliner.)

    Do you think the car in the pictures has an airbag in the A Pillar? I don't know when they started putting it there.

    Hey, that's MY car! :)

    Yes, the 2007 come standard with curtain airbags.

    BTW, if you're going to mess around up there, I'd recommend disconnecting the 12V battery first to prevent accidentally activating the airbags.
