Trying to change the cursor, doesn't work for terminator

this piece of .vimrc is for changing cursor shape. It works showing the underscore cursor in xterm, but in terminator not...Any idea? I tried it changing xterm by terminator but it doesn't work..

if &term =~ '^xterm'
  " solid underscore
  let &t_SI .= "\<Esc>[4 q"
  " solid block
  let &t_EI .= "\<Esc>[2 q"
  " 1 or 0 -> blinking block
  " 3 -> blinking underscore
endif

CSI 4 SP q is a specific sequence recognised by xterm to change the cursor shape. If it doesn't work for your terminal, it likely that your terminal simply doesn't recognise it.
