Its placement on the rear of the vehicle supports the proper functioning of radio and telematics systems, while also maintaining the characteristic, dynamic profile of BMW SUVs.

Body Color and Aesthetics

The housing is finished in Alpinweiss 3 - 300, allowing for aesthetic integration with bodywork painted in this shade. This means the part does not require additional painting, provided the vehicle has the same paint code, significantly reducing preparation time for installation.

The distinctive "shark" shape serves both a technical and visual function – it improves aerodynamics around the rear of the roof and emphasizes the modern, dynamic character of the BMW X5 and X6. This solution is particularly valued by users who want to maintain the consistent, factory appearance of their vehicle after replacing a part.

Characteristics of the Used Part

The antenna housing is a used part, meaning it is a pre-owned component that retains its original geometry and construction as intended by the manufacturer. Such parts are often chosen as an economical alternative to new components, while still maintaining OEM standards.

When considering used car antennas, it is important to pay attention to the condition of the paint surface and mountings – an original BMW housing usually offers a better fit than aftermarket replacements, which translates to mounting stability and reduced risk of leaks around the roof.

• factory fit to the roof shape and mounting points,

• preservation of the original styling of the X5 and X6 models,
• economical replacement of a damaged housing without altering the roof structure.
