I half heartedly traced the wire and the only one I can find is the radio connector, strange aerial for radio I would have thought but the radio works which is the main thing.
Unit now fully installed with all additional antennas in and working, just got reverse camera to fit but wiring ran to boot for it so that won’t be too bad.

Being highline your car antenna connector would have been in the boot. Whoever fitted the stereo cheated and put an aftermarket antenna in.

That is correct, the antenna is part of the rear window heater, with the amp hidden along side the window. The antenna lead plug will be be under the boot, between spare tyre and the rear panel - where the Hi-Line gubbins were located.
