Some TSX's Don't have a Rear Fin
Hi guys,

I noticed a couple of the 2nd generation TSX's I saw today on the road do not have a rear antenna Fin. I walked up to one today that did have a Fin with NO Navi, so I know it has nothing to do with Navi or Non-Navi models.

Can anyone tell me why some have Fins and some don't? Is it maybe the Canadian base (cloth) models dont have it?

Just curious

You are correct in your assumption. Canadian Base model with cloth seat has no XM satellite radio hence no Fin.

Thanks for the clarification.

So does that mean all trim levels have the FM antenna in the rear window?

I believe that fin is the antenna for XM radio, so it has nothing to do with Nav or non-Nav
