Default remove cb antenna female stud

2020 flhtk. How do you remove the female threaded portion from the tour pack for the cb? I want the plugs to match but can't figure out how to remove the female portion of the cb antenna mount.

1st, the AM/FM is opposite of the CB, so with the AM/FM don't so this...
For the 2016s the CB one is 3 pieces (46, 47,48), the stud sticking out (#48) will unscrew from #46 on the CB one, if its not too corroded. Then the hole plug/cover is #27, part #12100023.
On the AM/FM antenna the base is 2 pieces (50 & 51), the stud that the antenna screws onto is part of #50 and it won't screw out. You have to unscrew #51 out from inside the tour pack then all of #50 lifts out.
I found out the easy way... I broke the AM/FM one off...
For the 2020s I couldn't find the diagram that shows #48, but all the other pieces are there and show the same part numbers as below.
On mine, a 2016, I took #48 off and put the #27 plug in it, and on the AM/FM I took the base completely out (50 & 51) and stuck a #46 in there too and used the #27 plug on that side too... I think the little plug (#27) needed the part #46 to kind of "click into" to hold in place so it would stay put, if I remember right.

Got it off thank you.
