Last weekend I finally got My Si tinted, 50% on rear and sides with metallic tint. Since then I've noticed my radio reception sucks, especially AM. FM sounds about the same, maybe slightly crackly, but my AM reception is terrible now. It sounds as if the radio stations that used to come in perfectly clear are 500 miles away and are barely audible. Is this due to the metallic tint on the rear window, or is it just something wrong with the antenna?
