Hi all
can any body tell me if the Passenger side heated rear window works( the one on the side window not the door )or is it just there for show

or is it there so you can see when you are traveling down country lanes sideways

errrr... isn't that the AM aerial or something?

balmy1 · Apr 7th, 2008, 02:49 PM

Dont know maybe thats why it doesn't melt the ice but I thought thats what the pointy thing on the roof was for!

Good post!!

I've been wondering what that does.
Anyone got the answer?

balmy1 · Apr 7th, 2008, 02:54 PM

I still like the idea of being there as a visual aid for sideways driving.

I'm guessing its some sort of aerial as well, seems a bit OTT for them to put a heater element in the back passenger window then not brag about it.

Besides would it not be on the wrong side for us UK drivers?

Actually it is on the correct side for UK drivers (it's on the left of the car). It's all wrong for the rest of us

. Assuming it is a heater. I have no idea what it does!

was told by our dealer it was for the dab radio, something about wifi antenna or something, as i had it on our list for warranty work to be done
hope this helps

Thanks
I think we will leave it as an aerial I don't want to start any more right and wrong side clubman discusions

It is an aerial but dont know if its for dab as I dont have dab radio but have the aerial in the side window,

I am led to believe it is there as standard, as we also dont have the dab radio fitted, the one on the roof is for fm
