Mercedes-Benz EQS Aerial Replacement Parts

The EQS is a fully electric vehicle with no AM/FM radio aerial in the traditional mast or fin-on-roof sense that most combustion-engined cars use; however, it does feature an integrated shark-fin antenna module on the roof that handles DAB, GPS, and mobile connectivity signals. So while there is no conventional aerial to replace, the shark-fin module is the functional equivalent and is the part you are most likely looking for. If you are searching for a used replacement, ask breakers specifically for the EQS shark-fin antenna or roof antenna module rather than a generic aerial.

The EQS (V297 platform) launched in 2021 and received a facelift for the 2024 model year, so a module from a pre-facelift car and a facelift car may differ in connector type or software integration. We would recommend confirming with the breaker that the part number matches your registration before purchasing, as antenna modules on modern electric vehicles can be tied to specific communication hardware generations. Do not assume interchangeability across the 2024 facelift boundary without that check.

Trim level does not generally affect the antenna module itself; the shark-fin unit on the roof performs the same DAB, GPS, and connectivity functions regardless of whether the car is in Executive, AMG Line, or another specification. You may find cosmetic differences in the colour or finish of the shark-fin cover between trims, so if appearance matters you may want to match that separately. The underlying antenna module should be the same across trim levels, but always confirm the part number with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

The battery or motor variant (450+, 580 4MATIC, and so on) does not change the roof antenna module, as this part is not dependent on the drivetrain configuration. What matters more is whether the car is pre-facelift or post-facelift (2024 onwards) and whether it has any optional connectivity or telematics packages fitted that might affect the connector or module specification. Confirm the part against your registration with the breaker to make sure the connectors and part number align.

Mercedes-Benz does use common platform architecture across the EQS, EQE, and the W223 S-Class, so there is a possibility of overlap in antenna module design, but we cannot confirm cross-model fitment as fact. Differences in telematics, regional frequency bands, or connector routing between models could mean the parts are not directly interchangeable. Route this question to the breaker, providing your EQS registration and asking them to check part numbers against both vehicles before committing to a purchase.

On the EQS, the antenna function is integrated into the shark-fin module mounted on the roof, which typically clips and screws into place with connectors running through the headlining to the vehicle's communication systems. Removal generally requires careful interior trim work around the headlining rather than simple unclipping, so it is worth considering labour costs alongside the part price. A good breaker should be able to supply the module with its connectors intact, but confirm the exact configuration matches your car before buying.
