Window Tinting Recommendations - Phoenix

Anybody have any recommendations for places to get their Windows tinted and what they were charged?

Is it legal in Arizona to get your front window tinted? That sun really gets hot in the afternoon!!

I tinted all the window in my Smart, including the front windshield. I love it. I used metal film and it really makes a difference. The only problem is the tint would stick to the frit on the roof glass (I removed the headliner). I have never had an issue with the police as far as the windshield tint goes. It is basically clear except it has metal in it that reflects the sun.

I had Huper Optix installed at dealer before I picked up the car. Drove to Payson last weekend 108 out sun directly hitting side window and could feel no heat putting hand right next to glass! The stuff is worth the extra money here in AZ!

Andy: Any possibility I could get a front windshield tint from you for my smartcar?

Found someone to do my tint, but he didn't want to do the windshield.

Don't need it dark, just something to reflect the sun as I head west each evening after work.

Thanks.

Went to Danny's car wash to get Huper Optix DREI installed. They charge me $349 instead of $649 or whatever they at the dealer. I had reservations at first the way Danny's washes cars. I called two other places thinking they offered Huper Optix and both recommended Danny's. As they said, you got a lifetime waranty so if something goes wrong they will fix it no questions asked as long as you have the receipt.

What a difference this window tint provides in terms of heat reduction. Very impressed and would recommend it to anyone.
