It's in beside where your jack is & i cant remember if there are 2 or 3 10mm nuts attaching it, but they were fiddley to get to from memory as i remember dropping one down into the quarter panel space , & it would be easier to remove the inner boot lining & find the power wire that goes it too.  make sure you have/get the little sealing colar & cap that is on the aerial end that screws on top .

I just ripped it out and found some white tape and covered the hole. Good weight reduction

Mind you, your cars nice looking (plus a matching colour tape would be hard to find!). So perhaps wont work for you so well.
