Fortuner windows heatere

[sinbin]

On a Toyota Fortuner there is a rear, side fixed, small window. The fold up rear seats cover it up from the inside. Obviously there is one on both sides. But for some unexplained reason, to date, only one side (drivers) has an heating element. Before I contact the dealers and ask, is there any Fortuner owners that knows why?

I know why skodas have heated rear windows...

To keep your hands warm while your pushing it.

Is it , for left hand drive cars , so this window can be de-misted on cold days , and from the drivers ( left ) seat , they can see out , for safety .

This is not an heating element, this is the radio antenna
