Not sure, what type of spoiler are you installing? They do make them with the option for the antenna. Have you found any of those? This would make things a whole lot easier.

It's just held by double sided tape. I bought one from the dealer before and then it got stolen. I guess someone yanked it off.

I knocked mine off and replaced it a couple of years ago...I think the base was $35. When I purchased it the parts man at the dealer thought there was an error listed for the price. "Nothing from MB is that cheap"

My car didn't come with it and I want one. I thought it was connected to something (a wire or something); anyway, if you guys plan of getting rid of yours, send it this way!

It's only glued to the glass. I'ts supposed to help cell phone and Telaid reception. I tested Telaid and cell reception with it off and found no difference but have been told in weak signal areas it would help. I dunno.
