Default sirius antenna location?

is the sirius antenna built into the shark fin? i'm getting tint soon and the guy was talking about something in llumar tint that would affect nav systems (which i don't have) and i want to make sure it won't jack up my satellite reception.

side note: i had absolutely no idea that there are so many different types of window tint. ceramic, dyed, not dyed, reflective or not......

The Sirius antenna is built into the shark fin, so the metallic tint should not bother it. However, if you own or ever plan to purchase a radar/laser detector, the metallic tint will severely reduce its effectiveness. Personally, I would request ceramic just to be safe.
