I was under the impression that the heated windshield (with the embedded wires) didn't have the infrared attenuation. It has both?

On the F-Type 2017+ there is no cutout safe space. Unlike my Range Rover where you can see a trapezoid shaped area on the left of the rearview mirror that is not coated (you can see it as the color is not as greenish)

Please be specific or better yet post a picture... I spoke with JLR and there is no cutout like the Range Rover has according to them....

the heated windshield DOES block radar detector and toll-pass devices.
I think the little cutout is only on the F-Pace
on the XF, there are little spaces on the bottom left and right corners that do not have the electric coils....but those are not optimal places for radar detectors.
Ive made a similar post in the past, people responded with good information

While a remote mount is the way to go for ultimate protection, my Beltronics STI mounted in the cutout provides adequate detections. Last weekend on a winding back road I got a good around the corner detection of a CHP driving in the opposite direction. I definitely had enough time to slow down before he could clock me. In easier terrain like a straight highway it is also works pretty well.

Check out this thread. There is a picture as well as some videos of a simple test against a k band sign. You will see that the performance is degraded but it still works.
