    When you get the alpines done, ask for ambulance tint, which is the darkest possible, and normally illegal for side windows. I had no probs with mine.

    Sounds like dodgy brothers window tint. We had ours done in the Defender and Disco no problems at all.
    I would say the people you used are inept and would take it back and tell them to do it.
    Better than that if they are part of a national chain ring their head office.

    Tinting

    Thanks. I'm going back to the National chain and will ask that they finish the job! I will suggest that they pull up the ALRO web site.

    Thanks

    most will say they cannot do it, mine just said they would try - turned out spot on.

    What prob happened is the dealer screws them down to about $200 per car and charges the buyer $500+ for the same fittment. An old trick but still works.

    No problems back in '97 when I had mine done. I do remember it was a bit of a challenge at the time... was done by a woman fitter so how hard could it be

    Success with getting the alpine windows tinted

    Thanks everyone for your support on my tinting question on the alpine windows. Originally the tinting company said they couldn't do the alpine windows. I called the tinting company last week and asked that they give it their best shot. They agreed and did a good job on the alpine windows today.
