    Sounds good, what type of suntek film did they use and did they put a clear UV type film on the rear windows? I was considering going a little darker than 35% but it worked out ok.

    I did ask about the exact tint, but I can't remember the name. But it's non metallic, if that helps.

    The problem we had is that the privacy glass is very very green, and we tried a few films from various manufacturers, but none were that green. So they put a lighter tint on the back to help match colour to the front.

    Technically it's now darker than legal, but from what I've been told by 4 separate tinters, is that if you darken the front at all, because of how dark the privacy glass is on the back you'll be darker than legal anyway.

    I figure I can always take it off if there's a problem.
