Disconnect the negative battery cable first, to keep from throwing the anti thief lock. Remove the one screw from the bezel, ashtray area:

I am speaking from experience with my own 1998 XJ.
The plastic bezel that surrounds the stereo unit, heater/AC controls, etc. just snaps offwith a gentle tug.
First, with the car off, put the shifter into Neutral or 1st (to get the lever out of the way).
Pull evenly on the LH and RH corners, and the bezel will come off easily.
There is one retaining bolt on the face of the unit. Remove it.
Gently slide the unit forward, remove the antenna lead, and the wire looms.
Good luck. Aloha.
