Default Where is my antenna.

My radio stopped playing after the dreaded low battery warning turned it off, I get some interference noise but media works from my phone. I think the problem could be the antenna but I don't know where it is situated. Can someone tell me where it is fitted please. Volvo V60 D3 2011.

Not sure some say in the spoiler, rear window, rear side window. I think you have to cut the fin off as it is glued on.

On my XC60 it’s in the rear offside window, there are three almost vertical wires embedded in the glass and none on the near side. So probably the same on yours.

I was led to believe that it was the three vertical lines in the boot window on the drivers side,(as they are only on one side). However, I can't actually find anything to confirm this, which takes you back to square one with your question I suppose.

Wires, including connections can be seen in this link below.
