The rear window antenna requires 12V to boost it up. Your aftermarket deck should have a 'power antenna' output line. On my old MY05 this would connect to the factory solid white wire (iirc).

Tinted windows were ok, if you are having very poor reception there is a problem that needs checking.

Check here for what seems a decent thread on it.
