Most posts regarding wiring a adapter for trailer lights to a 900 series suggest tapping the green (always on) power wire to the power antenna. I have the Hoppy adapter kit and am trying to install and wire it up.

On my 92 945 I have the access panels off and can see part of the power antenna but no sign of any wires other than the antenna connection and a big diameter black wire, and a drain hose. Is the green wire inside a black covered cable with other wires?

Second issue, the power antenna quit raising some time back. I would replace it or at least remove and troubleshoot if I had a clue as to how to get it out. The antenna appears to have the car built around it at the real drivers side corner on this station wagon. Is there additional access lower than the rear area through the spare tire well?
