Question type: Car Customization
The Honda manual for the 2008 Accord Coupe EX-L V6 Navi states that we should not tint the back window because of interference with the Navi system. Is this true based on your experience; I want to tint all the windows. Advice please.

I have the rear window tinted in my Navi Accord and have had no navi problems.
My 2008 Accord Coupe EX-L V6 Navi had back windows tinted near 100% and had no problem with Navi, but I would not recommend to tint it so dark, it was very hard to see behind even during the day ! Now I changed for new Nissan 370Z, i have no problem to see behind, but it's hard to see on sides !
its true to a point. the antenna for the nav. is in the window. if you use a mirror type or reflective type tint the nav. cant get a strong signal from its satellites.
Metlic based tints are the one ones you will run into problems with.
