Hello Robin: The sharkfin antennae is fairly easy to install. You just have to take your time t make sure it lines up properly. I would suggest using the tape method as the company recommends. It's well worth the effort as ytou don't want to have it pointing anywhere but straight ahead. If you have a laser level, I would recommend trying that as that would give you a perfectly straight antennae a well. The tape method is great too though if you don't have a laser level. Just don't rush! Take your time. I'd estimate 30 minutes from start to finish. Good luck!!

They were done by a local shop and if I am not mistaken I think they went a little bit over the 20%.........

? have you had any issues with the gas gauge I fill up to full tank and soon as i start moving the last bar light on F goes alway then about 8 miles down the road it goes back to F full on the gauge 1st time dealer rest the computer and then it was fine but now it's doing it again is that normal or no , I love the car but that is the only thing that is going wrong so far and I'm not happy with the dealer right now .

Hi Robin:
I'm no authority on window tint. I assumed that when the guy asked if I wanted #20 film, it meant that the film allowed 20% of the light through. All my knowledge about film is based on assumptions and educated guesses. If I lived somewhere less glaringly bright than CO and AZ, I might have gone with a less dense film, however.

Hey Robin: Funny you should ask. When I bought my Sienna in 1998, I ordered (and paid for) tinted windows. But the driver's and front passenger's windows weren't tinted, so I called a Toyota help line. The gal took my question, researched it and called back to say that there was a Federal law that restricts you to: (a) light tint all the way around, or (b) dark tint in back and none (or no more than a very light tint, I forget) in front. (I don't know if there really is such a law but I believed the gal I spoke with.)
On my Sienna, I tinted the front windows one shade lighter thant the back to make it look like I hadn't violated the law and I've never been stopped.
With that in mind, I decided to just go with a darker tint all the way around on my Prius and my wife's Lexus.
I don't know where to recommed you get tint in IL. In CO, our clear bra guy and our window tint guy come our house and do it there. This is the 4th car they've done for us and we're very happy with them.
Hope this helps, Larry

? where is a good place to get it done right and back windows want dark , but I don't think that you can get the front door windows tinted in IL

Hey Robin. I think the darkest you can legally go is 20 and that's what I got. Limo tint is something like 10 or 5 (for rear windows only) but I wasn't trying push it.
