RCD-510 sharkfin antenna?

Post by TimM696 »

Could anyone confirm if the RCD-510 radio has an antenna on the roof.
had seen a roc in the showroom with a rcd-310 fitted and the antenna was integrated in one of the rear side windows.

Mine came with the "sharkfin" aerial. The window aerials are for the DAB reception.

Tim,

Have a look on here, basic radio (non-DAB) for a new Scirocco like your order, has a dummy shark fin aerial with aerial in the rear windows.

I believe they all have the shark fin ariel. But on cars with the RCD-510 it's just a dummy as the antenna is in the rear window.

The one at the dealer with the RCD-310 had a smooth roof, no sign of an aerial.
