Rear window heating

Hello Community,

considering ordering a new D4 I wander if anybody can advise, if the rear window heating comprises the last side windows heating as it was on the D3 (at least I have seen a couple of them having this feature.)

Thanks

Uff, really? From a glance I thought it was a heating. So the D4 antenna is integrated somewhere else, as this "heating" is not in the 3rd row side windows anymore, right?

Thanks for a quick answer btw

Hi
Mine definitely does not heat the rear side windows.
In my other car the "elements" are part of the alarm - don't know if that is true in D4 too.

I presume that the heated rear window is only standard on the HSE and is not available on the rest of the range?

Pavol, I think I am right in suggesting that the antennas are built into the shark fin on the roof of the D4, a feature that was missing from later D3's.
