Default rear glass radio antenna

does anyone know where the rear glass radio antenna plugs into? i just got my car repaired and in the process, they had to take out that rear glass. now some radio stations that i used to get before, i barely get now. i wanna see if maybe they didn't plug it in right?

Sounds like they might have missed a step, or reused the old unit when they should not have:

so the connector is in the roof? wow that looks complicated. when they take out the rear glass, they're suppose to use a new amplifier?

I too would appreciate a response...

I had the rear of my IS fixed after a rear-end collision. The glass was removed and re-installed. I found some of the radio stations now have static noise when operating the defroster...

Please clarify the comments attached to the diagrams above. does the antenna need to be replaced when it is re-installed?
