    I am having it done on Saturday for $195 (They come to your home.). All 10 windows. It is an extra $75 for windshield-I will wait. Person recommended by Toyota dealer! :)

    not sure. The installer suggested that the back window should be darker. I am either going lighter in the driver and front passenger side window then the back seat side windows or the same. :)

    If you have a dark interior then you don't need to go that dark to get that dark look. If it's lighter interior then it would be better to go darker.

    Congrats, please post some pics when you get a chance.

    So you got 35 on all 4 doors and 20 on hatch. Which Madico tint was it - Onyz, Charcoal, etc.?
