2013: What is it and when is it installed in the order process?
Hey all...what is this black blob of an abomination on the back of a lot of 2013's on top of the trunk? If it's Sirius, I never listen to the radio and would want to request it to be removed. Is it placed on at the factory or at the dealership? Thanks!

Where have you been?

That is the satellite antenna, on all premium Mustangs since the 2010 MY.

It's factory on premiums and they won't delete it.

I've been stranded on a remote island. I worked for FedEx and made a friend I'll simply refer to as Mr. Wilson. Thanks for the response.

They do make painted covers for it. Might be cheaper then removing it and having a body shop fill and paint.

It's the piece of **** Ford designed after going down to New Orleans and conducting a seance with madam Leveau to find out just what exactly they could do to **** you the f*** off.

I'd do a painted cover if it wasn't a shark fin style. If it was a close shape to the antenna, but painted, I'd be all over it.
