Brian,

Your best bet is probably to remove the instrument cover and cluster and
access your attenna cable through the resulting cavity.

The other option is to remove the front grill 4 - 5 plastic screws.  Remove
the drivers side head light and see if you can reach the cable through the
hole there.

Good Luck,

Steven
