good good atleast it was you that inflicted it on the car to be on the trailer.
do you have a readers ride thread? i really want to know the figures and see the progress.

mazfaz whats it like seeing out your rearview mirror at night? for recogniseing headlights to know if its the filth or not.

lol surely the point is you can see out but they can't see in?!

thats very true. but having darker windows makes a bit of difference to see through which is why you cant have dark front windows.
i always know what the car is behind me not because i drive like an idiot or anything but its always good to know.

You can't have tints on the front so the police can identify drivers from the side is the reason. We all know eye contact and sometimes hand gestures are needed from a side view too lol!

thats probally one of the reasons but more importantly it also doesnt give you a clear view of your mirror for passing motorcycleist etc and coming off junctions you cant see out the side window quite so well it also creates a larger blind spot.
driving at night with dark tints in the front windows trying to look at your wing mirrors would seem like your wearing sun glasses at night.

Nope, no readers ride thread, one of the few who doesn't lol. I may consider one when I've finished what I want to do but that may never happen :p No figures as yet either, but I'm going to JKM on 11th July for the RR day to see what she's putting out :)

went for medium (20%) at the end, happy with the result, had lots of positive comments from people, they reckon its made a big difference! (tints + cupra lights fitted in the same week)

night time driving is better in a way that cars with dodgy HID kits don't blind you anymore, but you can still make out the lights, just not any glare!
