Window tinting recommendations?

[un1corn]

Just after some prices for a c-class, tints on all windows except front doors. Sort of 50% tints, not full on FBI style black.

Any recommendations in the North west area? Specifically Blackpool/Preston way but will consider a bit further if really good/cheap.

I've used Apex in Rochdale (and so have friends on my recommendation) several times.

Examples....
Citroen C1 85 quid
Volvo V70 135

that's inc VAT for all the legal windows (ie. not driver, passenger and windscreen)
They stock a range of different %age tint films.

I always use Bobby at Manchester Car Tints, his prices are middle of the road, never let me down and a lifetime guarantee as long as you own the vehicle. Based in Chorlton, Manchester. Always seems to have nice motors in too

Please don't think that I'm coming across as rude, but why do you want to tint the rear windows of your car?

Is it for aesthetic reasons, so the car looks nicer?

I'm genuinely baffled, please enlighten me as I've never had the inkling to make my car windows darker.

It's an estate and I don't like too much light getting in. It feels like i'm driving around in a greenhouse at the moment.

I have the same issue with my Honda Accord tourer. It's a dark grey car with a black leather interior so anything that can reduce the amount of sunlight into the car will be a huge help. Also I regularly have mountain biking year in the back so it will help keep it out of sight of tealeaves.

It looks better for a start. I also tend to go for a sleep in the car at lunchtime and if I'm in the V70 I can just get in the back and because it's black leather I'm almost invisible and it's nice and dark. I've been known to fold half the seat down and stretch out in there too. Good security too - you can't see anything in the back of the car.
