Thats where it is. Maybe pull the radio and see if the antenna is installed in the port.

If you have a meter you can check continuity between the rear window and the coax at the radio the connector at the rear can be found in the trunk under the partial shelf. Never seen a purple coax for a antenna.

The antenna is a big metal cylinder plug, it's not really a wire persay. It's separate from the loom that plugs into the back of the radio itself.

It's a black cable, mine had some of the foam insulation stuff stuck around it as well.
