Unhappy 04 S430 Antenna to aftermarket Sounstream Head Unit

Hey guys, newbie to the thread and need a quick explanation on how to connect the AM/FM antenna in the car to the new Aftermarket head unit. The Head Unit has a small gauge cable dedicated to the antenna but as I connected the MOST interface to the unit system in the front of the car I cannot find anything (cables) that source to the AM/FM antenna. I do understand that the antenna is located in the rear of the car (driver side back panel) but can't figure out how to connect it. Can someone walk me through? Disclaimer, I AM A NEWBIE TO MERCEDES!

Thanks in advance!

Here's all the aftermarket accessories you'll need when you install an aftermarket radio. Make sure its done by a pro that knows these cars cause any screw up in rewiring etc will cause all kinds of electrical issues

P.S- your reception is going to be terrible. AM/FM will sound like crap once you go aftermarket....
