Help with sun strip tint

[LeavEmDusty]

Hey guys, quick question and hope anyone can help me out! My car is already tinted but I decided to go in today and get the sun strip tint on the winshield. The guy at the shop told me that putting a sun strip might affect the sensor that is on the top side of the winshield. I am not familiar with these things so any input is much appreciated, he said it "might" but he wasn't sure either, do u guys know if it does?
P.S: I have a 2008.5 Mazda 3 with the leather/Bose/navi package.

Cheers!

go to another shop. i have the same car without navi and i got the strip done twice, lol, a rock broke my window lol and the strip was replaced with the window. anyway never had a problem with any thing, the wipers, temp sensor, headlights all work great. so go to a place that has some confidence and that isnt telling you that cause its bull. the sensors are under the rear view mirror thing and the tint goes around that so it wont hit them if done right. i did talk to mazda and she said they had to fix one speed 3 that the sensors got messed up but that was on a windshield replacement. find a more reputable shop and do it

Thanks for the feedback, I am heading to the place which originally tinted my windows which are alot more trustworthy. But good to know that u got it done and ur sensors are fine.
Cheers
