Help! Where's the antenna amp on a C230 Coupe?

Hi,
My radio just stopped receiving a signal after the dealer worked on the pano roof of my '02 C230 Coupe. I think they might have accidentally disconnected the antenna amplifier. Where is it located? I want to look at it quick and see if I can reconnect it before I make the dealer do it.

Thanks!

Did you look in your fuse box ? Are you asking if they disconnected the AMP power feed ? Take it back to them.

There is an amplifier somewhere behind the headliner (i think??) that amplifies the antenna signal. I think they disconnected accidentally disconnected the wires to it.
I looked through the fuse list and didn't see it listed, but I haven't checked all of the fuses yet.
Just to clarify, the headunit works fine, I just can't receive any radio stations anymore..

Does the long distance car lock / unlock still work ?

If it is just the antenna connections then you still won't be able to sort it yourself. The C-pillar is a real cow to pull out.
