Les Henson Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Places such as Halfrauds are more likely to be able to help you. Tinting windows has come under light emission laws, so you might find that you can no longer get/use it. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve King Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 The current regs for window tinting are:- Front Windscreen: 25% (they must let 75% light through) Front Door Windows (i.e drivers and passengers): 30% (70% light must get through) All other windows – No restriction I'll get me anorak!

dollythelw Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Ive used the halfords stuff, if you lurk around the bargain bins then it was pretty reasonable pennies, the proper price was horrific though. It took 2 1/2 packs to do a Rangie, rear view mirrors tend to become pretty useless after its on though - I thought it looked pretty cool once it was blacked up. B) My advice is to take the glass out, make sure the glass is immaculate before you start, have a plant sprayer filled with warm water and a few drops of washing up liquid, a window cleaners blade thing and have a few scalpal blades kicking around and when its on slap a bead of clear nail varnish around the edges to stop the film peeling back ban cats from wherever you are trying to do it unless you want to be staring at a trapped hair on the side window for the rest of eternity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
