Aerial connects to the accessories socket, under the LH side of the dash, not the fusebox.
It connects to terminal Z in one corner, which will have a red/yellow wire going to the rear of it.
If your car has the circuit that allows windows and roof to operate with ignition off and doors open, there will be wires already plugged into this socket, but one of the wires ends in a flying socket for the aerial, a couple of inches away.
