I didn't see a blog post with instructions on how to remove the antennas. Got one? I'd love to do this. I'd love even more to pay a mechanic to do this but I'm not even sure what I'm asking for. I think there are 3 two way radios in my car, Sirius and 2 cellular modems from what I can glean from the user's manual. It's a 6 month old $50k car; asked about it on a subreddit and someone said it would probably void my warranty - fucking awesome.

Legal protections would be nice, but I'd like to stop being stalked _immediately_.




I will assume removing the radios, or modifying them would indeed void the warranties. On the other hand if the radios were blocked, without direct manipulation (i.e. Faraday cage-ish ideas) if the connectivity fails, is warranty void?

An alternative would be to use something Ms Fried built in 2006[0], but more specific. Come to think of it... this might be a small business idea...
