Default Satelite radio antenna?

My 2008 came with a color matching small hump on the trunk. Do all of the newer S2ks come with this satelite radio antenna? If not, is this a Honda item or aftermarket?

Mine has the option as well. Yours is the only other one i've seen. I don't think it was a big seller. If I drove my car more, i'd pay to have it work.

I was just about to post about this. Does anyone know where the smaller edition Sirius antenna can be placed on the inside of the s2000. I tried the roll hoop but I get static and cuts off. Definitely do not want that thing outside anymore.

I put mine on the dash, in the middle right under the windshield. My reception is great

I have mine there too, right between the vents for the windshield. Works perfect and is pretty well hidden.

I just moved my antenna to the top middle of the windshield, right above the mirror. The antenna is upside down and reception is cutting out all the time.
I don't recommend this position. I will try the dashboard and keep the antenna right side up

I put mine on the drivers side at the top of the windshield. The XM antenna being magnetic sticks perfectly and hasn't budged in the 10 months I've had it. I fed the wire down through the gap by the convertible latch, into the A pillar. No interference or issues.
