    Default tinted windows and V1

    Ok I admit I am too lazy to search... my cousin has 35% tint all around, including the windshield. We were wondering if that would have any effect on the V1

    Does anyone here still run RD's with tinted windows incld. windshield?

    My cousin rode in my car and was impressed by the V1

    Make sure the antenna is under the tint line and that the tint is not metallic

    then i'm too lazy to answer a question that i and most other members have answered numerous times before.
    but you are not lazy enough to type that entire sentence out instead of answering the question that you have answered numerous times before, which should be easy for you to remember by now if that is true.

    I have 35% on the rear, vertically and pick up rear scatter. So it should not be a problem.

    Some time ago we come to the conclusion that the V1 becomes more sensitive at dark or when it's behind the tint strip at the top of some cars. During the day it has to filter out some reflections from the sun along with the sun it's self.
