cambscoobyrob Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 hey bud, i know cambridge discount autoparts do tinting,also alan ( SMUDGA) wrote a post about window tints if u PM him he might be able to help to [Y]
kevin_baker Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Hi Option 1. heat the tint with a hairdryer to soften the 'glue' and peel gently. You may need to scrape the residue, if you do use a razor blade but only go bottom to top, or vice versa, do not go side to side! Option 2. Phone Justin on 07803 238078. If he can't get to you ask him for Wren's number, he does a lot of work on the bases [H] Option 3. wait until our next meet, have one of Rob's recommended vindaloo's, then your breath will melt it off [] Good luck

chu my pu Posted March 19, 2007 Author Posted March 19, 2007 wish i wouls have seen that last reply sooner... got it taken off at a place called CAR2TINT up north somewhere but you say they tint as well? i may call them up real soon because i need it re done, i hate driving around a fishbowl, what is the legal limit on tint here in this country. steve
kevin_baker Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Steve legally you can tint as dark as you want on the rear doors and rear screen, but you cannot legally tint either the front doors or the front screen although you may get away with a modest sun strip.
chu my pu Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 yea that is what the old bill said as well.i had the 2 fronts and 1/5 of the top of the windshield limo as well as the backs but now just my back 3 are limo black.
BLACK_DRAGON Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Hi all,when i got pulled for my front winndow tints old bill told me fronts could be up to 30% tint (mine was 76%) .Removed the tint myself,and had a MOT garage confirm i had removed the tints (cost £1.00).Then had to take all the paper work to the local nick.So is it no tint or 30% tint??
kevin_baker Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 To be definately legal, it's no tint on the front at all [] The standard tinted glass could be 20% already so even the lightest of films can take you over the 30%.
tied old dad Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 Hope this helps. There is a very good tint shop in Huntingdon, Cambs. Excellent chap can be contacted on 01480-454455. I have seen a lot of his work and is brilliant.
