my stock non-touring head unit also gets terrrrrrible FM reception. no tint on the z.
as a test, i plugged my ipod nano into aux and used its FM tuner function just to compare quality.
the ipod nano's FM reception (basically using only the patch cable as an antenna) is FAR superior to the head unit's FM reception.
so sad. aftermarket head units plug into the car's existing antenna, right? i wonder if the poor FM reception issue is a function of the antenna or the stock head unit.
it would be a shame to replace the head unit only to have the same terrible FM reception.
