I purchased a Kenwood KDC-BT365U and the correct harness to connect my factory harness to it
(http://www.crutchfield.com/p_120709221/Metra-70-9221-Receiver-Wiring-Harness.html?tp=2977)

On that harness, there is a blue wire. Reading the specs, it says it goes to the "power antenna". The issue is on the Kenwood receiver, their is no matching wire to hook up to. Also, as far as I was aware, the 2004 XC70 doesn't have a power antenna. Should I just tape this wire off?
