Friends: 4 |  Re: window tinting Picked up "Eleanor" from her tint job today. Looks good and I am very pleased. On Site Audio here in Baton Rouge did it. I would highly recommend them for any audio or after market add-ons. They brought me home and picked me up after the car was finished. They actually CARE if I spend my money there.....novel idea I think!!! |

Friends: 0 | Re: window tinting Tinting was one of the first things I did.- 32% on front sides and 13% on rest (except windshield, just a top strip). Keeps the car a lot cooler. The installers got a little carried away with a heat gun and they wound up replacing a door pillar plastic and a complete rear door panel. It was still worth it. |

Friends: 3 | Re: window tinting I've had my Prius since May 2008 and I have finally decided to get my windows tinted. I called the Toyota dealership and they quoted me $436.91 includes materials, labor, and tax. How did everyone else get theirs done for below $200? |

Friends: 4 | Re: window tinting Tammy, I used the information here about ceramic tints (highly recommended for the Prius because of nav/satellite) and searched on the internet for dealers who installed GeoShield ceramic tint. I found the distributor and manufacturer and got their recommendation for a good installer. Ceramic costs a little more but I didn't want to have any interference with the satellite in the car. I just recently had the dealer place the XM antenna on the roof after having miserable reception with it on the dash. Installation went well; it's been a week. I have had no "bubbles" at all. Very nice job!!
