Rear side windows heated or not?

Just wondered if the small side windows at the rear are heated like the rear window?
I ask because they have the small heating strips in but the ice snow does not melt like it does on the rear screen.
Is this a fault or an optional extra?

They're not heating strips. One side is the aerial, not sure about the other.

Can't remember who said it but recall being told that one side is the radio aerial and the other is a TV aerial Shocked

If you look - one side is connected - the other isn't (at least on my 08 model).

The other annoying thing is effectively you get a directional aerial so if you have weak radio station signal it can be lost just by a slight turn in the road - most annoying! Big Cry There's always a way forward!
