2014 Sharkfin on a 2013 CT?

I was just wondering, would the 2014 Sharkfin be compatible with the 2013 model? I want to just purchase an OEM 2014 Sharkfin and install it onto my 2013 model.

Not unless you want to hack off the sat antenna we already have.

You can always go aftermarket.

Yes. Pretty much. Or, you could go the lazy route like me and a few others and order a Beat Sonic antenna!

i just got the part number for the 2014 ultra white sharkfin from the dealership (8607776010A). The salesman said it costs $48. I'm just wondering, has anyone tried installing the 2014 sharkfin on their CT?
