i'm in fl did 30 all around and 70 windshield huper optik, I hate putting and removing sunshades. Tints only works for me. only downside that shit was expensive. When I get into a car without windshield tints the brightness is unbearable. front tints are a must for any future cars.

Windshield tint is great. Once you do it, you will never go back. Just don't go crazy dark.

They have to cut around the housing unless they remove it or remove the windshield. Even then there is no reason to tint behind the housing. The installer actually effed up my windshield by scratching it and ended up replacing the windshield. The new windshield was tinted before installation and it was still trimmed around the housing.

They cut around the mirror. Depends on your installer if they cut around the dot matrix or apply tint over it. On my M4 they tinted over the dot matrix.

Yes, on mine they also tinted over the dot matrix. All interior exposed glass is covered.

Suppose you're looking for a way to keep your car cool in the summer without spending much money. In that case, you should definitely consider getting a sunshade. Sunshades are a great way to keep your car cool while parked, and they're also very easy to use. I got mine from snapshades.com.au. Just open up the shade and place it on your windshield, and you're all set. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when using a sunshade. First, ensure the shade is big enough to cover your entire windshield. Otherwise, it won't be very effective at keeping your car cool. Second, remove the shade when you get in your car and drive off. Otherwise, it could blow away and cause an accident.

I have full leather as well and went with 70% tint on the front windshield. Honestly hard to tell a difference with 70% vs no tint but it gives me peace of mind knowing the interior is protected from UV rays. I also have XPEL ceramic infused PPF on my carbon fiber roof. Both were investments that didn't "add" to the cars appearance but provides long lasting protection for years to come. Any "mod" that protects our cars from the weather is always a solid purchase!

I was considering getting a windshield tint, but the installer was very persuasive to not get it due to legal concerns (at least here in WA state). Have any of you with windshield tint run into any issues with the law when pulled over ? Or pulled over because of the windshield tint?
I have had cops question the VLM on some of my tints so opted out of the windshield tint. |
