Welcome to the forum.

Yes, there is advice. Learn to use the forum search tool. You'll get answers more quickly, and we won't have to repeat ourselves so much.

If the windows have metallic tint, it will interfere with reception, especially AM.

If not, it could be a small amplifier located just ahead of the back window, above the headliner. There is an amp for the antenna of each radio band.
