My tint isn't metallic, but I'd rather not give the dealer any reason to bitch before troubleshooting my problem further. The factory tinted glass also looks so much nicer than the tinted stuff.

Folks have cited rear window tint as a probable cause of radio interference and decreased fob range. I have researched factoy tinted rear window glass for my vehicle, but the unit is coming up without a price at realoem.com and getbmwparts.com (Tischer BMW). Does anyone know if the part number has been superseeded?
51317163461 - $0.00 Lift gate glass - Bmw W/climate comfort 2006 - 2010
I found the non-tinted glass without any trouble:
51317163460 $708.17 Lift gate glass - Bmw W/o climate comfort 2006 - 2010
I have factory-tinted rear side glass and it looks superior to film-tinted glass. It is well worth the additional expense in my opinion. No reception headaches with the alarm and comfort access is a bonus

I just heard back from my parts guy. He says:
"It looks like 51317163461's been discontinued for sale here in the US by BMW - with no replacement/supercession shown."
I guess that's one way to prevent my spending $800+
I'm going to have to get comfortable with the idea of lines in my rear window tint.
