Thanks.

yes it will.... in cars that have intigrated antennas into the glass... for example my wife's Alero we have ceramic tint for that exact reason

Has anyone personally witnessed this interferance? There is a post above that states it does not affect reception based on there own observations with this specific application. I too had an Alero before my Yaris. (Hit and run ended that for me), but my windows where not tinted.

So, - If anyone actually has a yaris sedan with metalized tint installed, please let me know your observations with radio reception.


Thanks for the posts so far guy's.
