Window Tinting in So Cal

[Dr. B]

Hello All,
I want to tint my windows to the darkest extent that the law allows in California. Has anyone had a good experience with a mobile car tinting service (or even a brick and mortar establishment) in the LA or San Fernando Valley area?

I went to a place called SOLAR TINT in Burbank.
Good pricing and I am pleased with the results.

Awesome! Thank you so much for the replies
Did they remove the factory tint? Did you have the front windshield done as well?

Also, do you recall about how long the process took? Thanks!

Had all the windows done including windshield. Left on the factory tint. Took half a day to complete. It was all ceramic to cut down on heat. You can have any level of dark you desire on any window. I went heavy on the back and light on the front. Made a noticeable difference in interior temp. That and a dash mat.

I have been wondering about ceramic. Good to hear that it really is worth it. Thanks so much!

Any pictures of the dash mat? I prefer to use them down here in Texas, but haven't been able to find any pictures of an actual one for the BS. The one I had for the Edge didn't fit well and interfered with the light sensor for the auto headlights, so didn't actually end up using it.

Limo dark in the back 90%
20% on the driver and passenger.
Windshield has very slight, maybe 10%?
Did that one because I got the ceramic tint that lowers heat on all of them.
I am pleased with the work and the results.
