Car window tinting

Hadrian

The law says windows must allow 75% passage of light. From a personal point of view why on earth should anyone want to obscure their car windows?

if you are that worried about security leave nothing in the car and leave the glove box open so they can see there is nothing to break in for rather than making it harder to see that theres nothing there

hi , i wanted the windows tinted on my discovery , the local guy i found in yellow pages was a right jobsworth and wouldnt tint the windows as dark as i wanted , he even had the actual law printed up and laminated to give customers to read , what a !!!! , tried to convince me to have just a slight tint and wanted to charge a fortune ,
my next step was to look on ebay ..... i found a firm called guardian tints ....they came to me , were very professional , had a kitted out workshop in there van , and found them to charge a reasonable price

it was a few years back so not sure if they are still about


some time later i got pulled up and was made to remove the film from front driver and passenger windows as it was illegal apparently lol
but the rear is still limo black , which the local jobsworth would not do and the police were not worried about the rear windows when they pulled me up just the front , i suppose they like to look in on whos driving they reckoned it was because i couldnt see out , but what about when i wear shades ? surely thats the same or worse

You're either an illiterate troll or an idiot.

That's just for the windscreen.
