on the radio, first thing i would check is that the antenna is hooked up. there should be a co-ax cable running to the back of the headunit, and this is the antenna cable.and on window tint, the easiest way to do it is to warm it up with a heat gun (or hair dryer) and start peeling off. might have to use a razor to get a corner up. then after you get the film off, you can use some adhesive remover (goo gone) to remove the sticky stuff. search in the detailing section and there are some threads about taking tint off and the best ways to do it.

Using ammonia will also aid in removing window tint.

So will acetone. WD-40 actually works very well for removing the adhesive.

I did mine by first putting the car on a shadow, then spraying cold water, then with my finger nail I peeled a little corner and started removing it, wet the window from the inside as well,then I used gasoline to remove the sticky thing. good luck.

Meh.. Lasted around 35 hours with the stang... Took it back today because of several reasons (insurance is too high, has steering problems, one rim looks like is going to break apart soon...so... I am going to go ahead and save up for a newer car and maybe v8... So ill probably visit this forum in a few months.. years.. Not sure how long it will take me but i will get it one day .

Insurance was high? how much did they quote you? Good luck either way a V8 will be great, speaking from experience.
