I am going to get the windows tinted on my 94 extra cab pickup. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what a reasonable price is to pay so I don't get screwed. Also, if you have any other things I should look for, that would be great. I live in UT, does anyone know the tint laws? Thanks for all the help.

 

The lowest that i've been quoted for my 4Runner was 180 at 20% tint and that was a decent deal in my opinion. Other places have quoted me around 250. Most states have a 35% law i think, at least here in Kansas thats what it is. For your pickup i would say anywhere under 200 would be a good deal, probably more like 150 though. But then again im just going by situations in kansas. Dont know if it would be the same there.
I also wouldnt tint it below 20%. Maybe 10 or 12% in the rear windows but id go with 20%

 

its $60 for two windows

EDIT: probably another $25-30 b/c you have an extra cab

 

The place I go in New Orleans charges 160 for SUV's.

I paid $300 for tint all around.

 

Tint laws vary. In Arizona you can pracitically have full blackout while in New York you can't have any tint on your front windows. Have to check the local laws. Here in Oregon, 35% up front is the limit. The rest can be as dark as you want.

 

In New York you CAN have tint on the front windows (driver and passenger)
In NJ you really can't. If the cops don't bother you, inspection will.
Or it may matter by location. I know the 5 boroughs can have tints on front windows. They tried to make it illegal, because the police can't see if they have a gun pointed at them.

 

I paid $80 for my two fronnt windows in (illegal) 20% to match the back. They want $175 to finish the seven other rear windows..

 

I paid $50 to get my two front windows in (illegal) 20% to match the back.

 

$110 all windows 5% llumar. Miami. Ghetto.

 

Prices have gone up since I last had any car windows tinted back in '96;I had all my Eclipse windows done for $120 with a lifetime warranty. I recently got a quote for my two fronts at $80 from the same shop.

 

I just ordered mine from ebay. tintguys on ebay can precut all your windows to an exact fit and then ship it to you in a roll. It only cost me 50 bucks for a complete tint. They will let you pick the darkness and they use good quality tint with metalic dyes that will never fade to purple. doind it yourself is easy especially on a second gen cuz no windows are double curved (which causes bubbles).

 

im getting my 4runner tinted tomorrow, was quoted $199+taxes. Legal in the front limo all in the rear. Seems like a real good prive considering the amount of windows

 

how long does it take to get the front two windows tinted?

 

I had my front two windows tinted 35% for 60. No warranty though because its illegal to have any tint on front windows out here. I think it took them like 15-20 minutes to do the fronts.

 

Have you tried to do it yourself?
I've done a few, If you take your time and have the right tools its not that difficult.

 

has anyone else used tintguys off of ebay? how'd it turn out? thanks for all the info!

 

jess wondering if u can tint over tint...im thinkin bout getting that tint off ebay and tint over my already tint rear windows to make it even darker
