Yeah, but what type? Cellphone or something?
It's definitely not AM or FM, as I've tested it out. If I remove the roof-top antenna from my car, my FM and AM disappear, leading me to believe the window antenna is probably for the factor cell phone. But that's a weird cellphone antenna.

Yeah, seems strange...
Seems fishy. If I remove the external antenna on top of my car, my AM reception pretty much disappears. That leads me to believe AM and FM are covered by the external antenna. But I sure do wanna know what that window antenna is... if it's even an antenna.

yup, and the rear window has antenna lines...
I should look it up in the bentley...
I don't think it is an antenna... and IIRC, the avant has cell antenna wiring predone too, but I wanna say it is in the aerial one...
funny, these lines are also on subaru wagons, volvo wagons, etc....
hmmmm

All those other wagons, too?
Weird. But yeah, the cell wiring, if indeed predone, would really need to be in the arial antenna to be good.
Well crap. Now I *really* want to know what the heck those lines are for.
