Removing the roof antenna

I see there is finally a shark fin in the classifieds section. Is anyone making a complete deletion kit for it? I NEVER listen to the radio. Ever. So I'd like to just remove the dumb antenna altogether. Anyone know if any other newer cars have had kits to do this? I assume you can undo the antenna, and then unplug the wires, then all you would need to do is plug the hole right?

Group buy! Help us out and get helped. If you are buying a $25k dollar car what's 86 dollars if you join in on the group buy. Trust you won't be disappointed. It looks legit on the car.
