I thought the shark fin only came with Sat Nav.
I have a 5 door with DAB with a normal ariel.

There are different options but not a DAB & FM. You have a dummy, sat nav, sat nav and phone I think can Check in the morning.

No no I mean the design of the shark that corsas had on the glove box hinge ha.

Mines FM & dab no nav with the fin but then again I've not seen a GTC without the fin.

The GTC's all come with the shark fin on roof. Although I don't believe it's functional unless you have Satnav.

As for the Glovebox shark of the Corsa I believe it was just on the Corsa's I've not seen one on the J or the GTC.

Must be a UK thing then. Does yours still have the lines in the rear side windows for the aerials?

if you want the sharkfin you have to fit the DAB radio so the FM and DAB receivers are in the windscreen
follow this how too but it will not be cheep

You should have 2 shorter lines at the top mate that don't go all the way along.

I will have a look, but i have the cd 600 with 7 inch color screen, so i'm not sure if DAB is integrated.
the how-to says i should already have the shark fin.
i might be lucky and just have to change it to a fin

no you will still need the DAB fitted
if you have the nav600 follow this how too

you must remember the sharkfin will be a bummy the fm and dab will come from the rear window instead of the roof mast
the shark fin is really just for the sat nav
