Question. Someone told me the antenna for my radio is inside the glass in the back, where the heating lines are. Would tint interfere with my radio reception?

Metallic tint can have negative effects on radio and cell reception. I just went with non-metallic 35% all the way around (minus windshield) on mine, no issues whatsoever.

mlacomb is correct. You can contact a tint shop or two and they will be able to guide you towards film that will minimize or eliminate any interference. They'll also have information on what % is legal in your state.
