Hey I talked to the LT at station 3 today. He's going to think about it and get you a price. I told him you already have the tint. Me and him are usually at the station wed-fir and some weekends. Call me and you can use the rescue bay to work on it.
Of and the satisfaction you get from doing it your self is well worth the effort.

When you buy some different tint go on you tube and search on tinting windows. There are a bunch of videos from the pros on how to tint and shrink.
If you buy a good brand then it is easier to see through from the inside than the cheap stuff. Something with the dye the crappy manufactures use. I agree with dirtoyboy....I would not want to wheel at night with 5% tint...way to hard to see your sides and rear. I think it makes seeing forwards easier since no light is coming in anywhere else distracting you, but that is just me.

woah, thats dark! You would get a ticket pretty fast in my parts
No tint on the side/front windows allowed! I still want to match the factory rear tint on the door windows though...

I wouldn't buy it, listing is full of typos, it doesn't list the brand of it, and he doesn't even spell "vinyl" right in ebay name or email
what rewards are there with 5%, sorry if I missed that somewhere earlier

ahh, yep, make sure that any stuff you buy is actually good for blocking sun, and not trapping it, a lot of the cheaper films do not keep out as many rays as a better quality, regardless of light transmission rating. If you have your windsheild done, make sure you (or a pro) do a darn good job since it sometimes can be a bit blurry... =)
ooh, and something I couldn't stop thinking about, it's a really dumb question, but when you mention your film is super thick, you are taking the clear film off of it when you apply right? exposing the slightly sticky part that adheres to the window???
