tinting windows

I just tinted my back 5 windows on my 05 TSX with the 5%...look really good. The
total price is 179.95. It doesnt affect the navigational system, and guarranty for
life time. I had 3 cars done at this place. Here is the address for the northern cal.
folks....2915 Monterey Road. San Jose , CA 95111. Phone number is 408 2246061. Hope this might help some of you that live near hear. As far as roll the
window down...i dont want to try it yet until 3 or 4 days till the tint is dried, or may
be i wont roll down the back windows at all. The limo tint really look good with
the carbon gray color car...i like to show the pics of it but dont know how to post
the picx on here. So far i love this car i just put almost 500 miles on it and cant
wait to open her up when she passes 1000 miles.

Hopefully they also replaced the rubber-baby-buggy-bumpers on the back doors for you. I had mine done in Livermore at Rocky Mountain; the price was comperable, the quality was excellent, and the knowledge was appreciated. I was impressed when they told me that my car had these window squeegies that needed to be replaced w/ felt - and that they'd take care of it for me.

I went 15% by recommendation from these guys, it's supposedly much easier to see out the window at night when backing up. It also keeps out somewhere around 68% of thermal heat as opposed to like 73% that the 5% gives - it's basically very close in terms of saving the interior leather. They also told me to wait a few days, and to skip the vinegar based cleaners...something about the Lumar maybe?

Glad to see you like it, I really like mine too!! I'll keep an eye out for you down in San Ho...I usually cruise around the Almaden Valley area or the Lawrence/El Camino area

Vinegar-based is usually fine, it's the ammonia-based that you need to avoid.

Water and vinegar will do just fine. If not, dish cleaning soap will do as well.

I didnt ask for the mole skin...but i just have to take that chance by not
having the back windows rolled down by locking the button up front so no one can
use the back windows. But it looks good with limo tint though.
