Tinyflier Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Attached to my windscreen (MY 06) behind the rear view mirror is a long slim rectangular box with a cable running into the headline. What is it for? David Quote
Keyser Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Put a pic up - we like a challenge Sounds aftermarket though. Quote
KC350Z Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Do you have a roadster or coupe as i have some thing there on my roadster but was something to do with old sat nav i belive Quote
scubapics Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 It's the GPS antenna for the satnav I believe. Even if you car wasn't fitted with satnav this is fitted anyway. The Bluetooth antenna is part of the blue tooth module in the glove box no? Quote

scubapics Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Actually I am wrong again! It is the antenna for the handsfree phone option. The handsfree kit was originally designed for a Nokia mobile rather than over bluetooth. With so many people using newer phones over a bluetooth dongle, the antenna no longer serves any purpose.
