If u have kids be cautious. Within a couple of months my son managed to scratch the film with toys much to my frustration. Only just notice it but still pretty annoying !!James favourite hobby is writing in the third person.

Did you ever have your windows tinted in Bristol?
sailorboi
Can you tell me how much it cost and how long it took please?
Other than that, can anyone recommend a company in the Bath/Chippenham/Calne/Devizes area?
Thanks.

Buy some film for Ebay and have a bit play on the rear window, it's not that difficult, clean windows and a craft knife and your away.

Okay.
Have just found a highly recommended local company.
They emailed back:
"The cost to tint a Disco 3 rear 7 windows will be £225. I would recommend using a 15% film. this will give good heat and glare reduction as well as give a nice look to the vehicle, we would need the vehicle left with us for half a day"
Is 15% film what anyone else would recommend??
Thanks.

That seems quite steep, top tints in Gloucester is great. He did ours for 160 pounds. Excellent job too.
