Mostly probably yep does it work in the open air?
Loads of sat navs need to have external aerials puit in the little rectangle lower down on your windscreen as theres no reflactive materials there so signal is better.

Yes mate, when a passenger holds it in his/her lap it works fine.

try it in center of windscreen where theres a clear rectangle in the screen . that doesnt have the heat protection bit i believe.
