it might have been discissed before for sure it must have but i can't help it... where is the antena for the radio on this car?!?! i heard/read once that it was in the rear window like the lines of the defroster . is it true?

 

yes

 

Yes it is true!

 

how so ? how does it work?

.. u would think such cool thing like that, mercedes or bmw would use in their "luxury" cars, after all antenas look hedeous in a car IMOP

 

I knew the radio antenna was on the back window. Is that where the NAV system GPS antenna is also?

 

good question..

 

no

 

Ok. So where is it? The GPS antenna, that is.:D

 

Gee Fubar, thanks for the info! Any clue where the GPS antenna is?

 

lol. yes it is under the back glass under the package tray, between the speakers.

 

BMW does do that. My brother's 3 series (a 2001) and the 5 series (a 1998) I traded for the RX8 both use the antena in the glass. I don't know about Mercedes.

 

my 99 honda prelude had the antenna on the rear windshield... i'm glad my 8 does too because if you really look at car antennas, they kind of make any car on the road look like an overgrown RC car. not good.

 

I agree, its so nice to have the hidden antena
