Mine has a dark tint on the rear doors and screen which is great at night as theres no glare from the cars behind you.

On the Manta we have used 3M Chrystal clear. Its not really a tint as such but is heat reflective.

Only one problem is its not available in the UK as we had to get this shipped from California where my customer lives, also had a big problem finding someone to fit it as it wasn't supplied by them and is thicker than normal tint.

hmmm, like the sound of this Andy, i aim to get a heat reflective screen at some point, i like the appearance of them from the outside and the benefits inside the car, would think the same finish on the side windows would also be legal as it is with the screen?

People: as regards to tinted motorcycle visors here, I speak from experience when I tell you that you can wear a tinted visor, as long as you have a clear one available to change immediately should you be stopped by the police.
They cannot do you if you have an IMMEDIATE alternative and fit it whilst they are present.
from memory the tinted visor's used to come under windscreen rules - so could'nt be tinted as plod could "not ascertain if the vehicle was under control"  >:( -even though there was a body astride the bloody bike !!

I got GNU done in weston super mare -- is that too far ?  £160 for limo black rear of B pillars inc. rear screen. Lifetime g'tee.

Incidentally, on the subject of tints forward of the B pillar. I can't remember the wording now, but the way the relevant Act was worded could be construed as any film, regardless of tint, affixed to the windows forward of the B pillar could contravene the regulations.

where was that?had mine done at smd solar control at hewish...


Was SMD at Hewish ---- He's moved to a unit near the helicopter museum now, so I am told

told me he was moving when i had mine done and that was last year....

He has now moved and he's next to the helicopter musem and is called Screen Tech. I had my estate done about 3 months ago and for all windows it was £180 and i called him last week about my new MV6 and he quoted the same :y He's done other cars for me in the past and his work is great and for what he cost's i cant see a better deal out there.
