No, tint shouldn't affect it at all. You just want it mounted as high as possible.

tint can affect some radar lasers. for my escort passport, manual states tint can affect the radars performance, but it will still catch the signals and whatnot. so if your wanted the best of the best, try to avoid mounting the radar laser spots behind tint and make sure they have a clean and clear view thru windows. not sure how much it can affect, but i doubt enough to know?

is "putting it as high as it goes" mainly for the valentine one, or for all radars?

i have mine really low on the dash i guess its because radar dectectors are illegal in VA

more likely all. by mounting the laser/radar higher, it will avoid any objects interfering to detect any lasers being used and have a "clearer" signal.

I'm just curious, but why did you add in that you paid $35 for it in all capitals? Who cares, oooh I sold a 12W6V2 for $200 and a Passport 8500 whoaaaaa oh by the way does my tinit affect it?
