Are metallic tints ok to use on the G?
I've had metallics on my old cars, most of which had diversity antenna's on the rear window. I've also used my cellphone and portable GPS in them without problems. Would it be safe to say the same for the G with the nav/bluetooth/satellite?
I found a couple of old posts, but it seems most people have ceramics installed here.
Thanks.

Someone else might know better but I thought the antenna is the fin on top of the car?

I have metallic. It definitely messed up my radio reception for the few stations that are farther away.
For stations with a strong signal, it didn't make a difference. Unfortunately, my favorite stations are the two that don't come in well now.
Get the good stuff (ceramic) and you won't have to worry about it.
