If the windows are tinted with metallic tint (and most tint is) then the proximity sensor will not work very well at all.

Yes true...it can't see through metal at all. If you want the protection with the windows closed your only options are to strip off the tint..or replace the tint with non metallic.

Nope, even with the windows slightly rolled down the sensor would only work in the small area that was rolled down. As Master5 said either strip off the tint or get non metallic tint.

Maybe if a large bird flies by the slight window opening but I would be more concerned about the elements such as rain getting in the interior.
