I have a Maxi and got the four side windows, plus tailgate done in limousine [very dark] for £175.

That was in Stokesley near Middlesborough.

I'm looking at getting mine done too as being a day camper, I'd like to see out the back and at the moment I can't , it's just pure black.
Worth doing it myself of getting a pro to do it?
Anyone have one way tinted windows?

Any chance of actually seeing out of the windows to gauge on darkness? Tinting is a new world.to me...

Coz of photo filters it would be pointless, but. 5% you can’t see the police at night if they are behind you, until the blue lights are on. 15% you can. And unless people looking in go up to the the window and look in people can’t see in at all. That why I went for 15%. Hope that helps. If you go to a tinting guy or girl, they can put the tint up and you can choose. I’m sure it happens all the time. If you want it dark as a dark thing then you want 5%

I had limo tint on my t5 window van and was great for hiding bike gear yet still reasonable visibility through whilst driving

I needed to make my bikes less visible so went for 90% on sides and 80% on rear. I can see out but it’s very difficult to see in unless the sun is shining though from the other side. Cost £180 from company in Poole.

I’ll be looking at curtains at some point in the future too.
