I don't think there is a easy way.

I have looked at mine and the fender must come off but I do not know if you have to pull the radio to plug the new antenna in the back.

Mine is just a little bent from offroading.

The easiest way to replace a radio antenna on a '95 DI is to take it to a stereo shop and have them do it.
The cheapest way is to use a coat hanger.
Hope this helps.

mine was bent and then torn off by branches. reception is worse (obviosuly) for radio but my iPod transmitter works so much better i think i'll just keep it that way!

Well at least you guys can find your antenna. I hate to admit it but on my 1997 Disco SE7 I can't even find the radio antenna, radio works better than any I've seen just can't find antenna.

The radio antenna is in the rear window in the cargo area. You know the rear defroster looking thing on the drivers side rear window? THAT is your radio antenna.
SE models have it there (mine is a SE too) and I think that the HSE does too and I do not know about the other models.

You gotta ask yourself, why would they put a defroster on only one side window?

Just an FYI, mine is an SD and I have one in each window. One is for FM and the other is AM and WB. That is why D2's have crappy AM reception. No separate antenna. I get great AM and have never missed a weather repaort.
