Default soarer fans, what is this??

I saw this on ebay and I never such thing. So what is it??




This is probably a super rare part cuz they dont have them for in the SC for sure.. So it probably won't work and pointless if i get it.

theres a lil tab under the steering wheel where the switch for that goes. For the rear you can just use your antenna!

I would assume in the name of the "bottom line", Toyota would have used the antenna assembly.

It's OEM for the soarers. SCs didnt include them, i'm guessing just because they dont fit the 'sleekness' of the car.

basically its a non-functional radio antenna that gets mounted to your front bumper.

if you really want to be super rare jdm-tyte-yo get 4 of them. one for each corner of the car...or learn how to drive and park.

this is one of those hot items in the honda community where you try to make your civic as jdm as possible to the point where you spend 60 bucks on a stock clock that glows amber instead of green and "gathers" speakers. at that point its cheaper to buy a jdm civic with all those parts, legalize it, and enjoy in the US.
