What are these on my windscreen?

[marknash99]

I've noticed what look like three elements in my windscreen, one either side and one in the middle. I've taken pictures of the ones at either side. What are these?

part of the heated front screen?

That could be a good shout?

Yep, FM aerials I believe.

As featured on Roadsters and later coupes (post MY07?) when the stubby aerial was deleted from the roof.

If you ever need to get your windscreen replaced, make sure you get the right model year or your radio signal may end up pretty poor

Radio aerial (and possible antenna for sat nav?) only on 4.7 onwards

They're explosive devices to shatter the windscreen when you activate the two front firing ejector seats.

I'll take cover now for alluding to the B word.........

Radio aerial in the windscreen was from 2008 onwards as mentioned earlier, so applies to late 4.3s as well.

As already mentioned: antennae.
