Default Valentine 1 and Window Tint!

I just read an article on Valentine1s website that describes an extreme effect of window tint on the quality of the detector. I called Valentine and they explained that if you have a ceramic tint ( I have formula 1 pinnacle) that it only affects laser detectors.

1. Has anyone with ceramic tint experienced any differences in the quality of detection?

2. Has anyone mounted their V1 outside or in the grill of the car?

1. I have Hiper optik and I have no problems with my V1 getting detections.

2. No experience with this one.

Metallic tints are the tints that affect radar detectors.
