www.caranddriver.com has a couple of comparison tests. They are the least biased when it comes to radar detector tests.
Tint will cut down radar reception just like it cuts down on UV light passing through....it's common sense if you think about it.
Every car is tinted from the factory, and some cut down on radar reception more than others. There's a website on this, but I can't remember the adress. The stock Accord cuts down on recption something like 35%.
