i have a prox sensor. i just got it like a year ago after i took off my tint. if you have metallic tint the prox wont work past the tint. so technically it would only work if your windows are down and through the front windshield.

the full name is called proximity sensor which is the radar sensor for car alarm. It detects motions around your car
