Also, i was also thinking of getting the front windows tinted, does anyone know what tint percent/colour will match the rear windows ?

thanks

Andy

You should check what's the legal limit as it might be lighter than the rear windows. In my country it is even illegal to tint your windows with foil. It is only allowed if tinting was done by the manufacturer.

For a legal window tint in the UK the specifications are:

a) Motor Vehicles first used on or after 1 April 1985

B The light transmitted through the windscreen must be at least 75%. B)

c) The front side windows (to either side of the drivers’ head) must allow at least 70% of light to be transmitted through them.

If the glass is tinted to a point whereby it lets through less light, the vehicle is breaking UK Window tinting law.

70% is NOT very tinted, some Police forces will give you a ticket as soon as look at you

Kingo :thumbsup:

Thanks for the feedback !

I was looking for somewhere close to me to do it. And found this place :-

They talk about 55% film, "which stops you from getting points on your license".

Is this <the spuds of lurrrrvve>s then ?

Thanks

As your front windows are already tinted I can assure you any more tint on the front and you will get a fine, they will tell you anything to get your money but the fact is the windows are tinted to the legal limit by Toyota.

Cops over here used to use index cards to check if tints were legal. Hold the card on the inside of the window and see how much you can ready from outside.

The place who put a 70% on my front windows told me it was being done at my own risk.
