Window tint
#43
Are you guys getting the felt strips installed along with the tint?
Should the tinter have these and know when to install them? Or are these something the tinter will have but only install when the customer asks for them? The guy who tints my windows (has tinted 5 cars for me and a few for friends) does the best job I've seen. No gap around the top edge of the windows, one piece on the back glass and will tint OVER the brake light, and uses Lumar tint.
Does anyone know how to remove the 3rd brake light on the xB? I took a look at the housing and don't see how to remove it. I want to get this out the way for the guy.
BTW >>> I'm getting 5% on the back and all side windows, 35% on the entire front windshield, and then a 5% strip up top on the windshield I like it dark and as of now Georgia has NO tint law

PS: I like my 20% - any more would be too dark at night for me. There's a small issue with seeing the 2 side mirrors... not too bad. I have a Broadway Convex "Type A" 240mm center rear mirror that is extra bright (it's made for dark tinted windows). It helps see out the back. I got it from:

I took my xB back to the shop and they installed the felt strips. They pulled the two door panels and added a 1.5" arched felt strip. The installer showed me the panel. The strip looked like it would really baby the tint film... He showed me that the removal of the panel involved two screws and four pop-out plastic fasteners. I'm glad that I got the felt...
