That's true, the whole one-chip-at-a-time thing is a b**ch.

One thing probably worth noting, there's no way these tints are legal:



I will look into them but i could just supply solid poly windows with no holes and people could sort out there own venting then.

As for tints here i cant see a problem, who needs to look out the side windows when you only travel forward Dunno

I do yes but not at the minute while my car is off the road. Then again the 106 diesel has a good hand break on it Wink

Expensive!!! It goes through my mates work so i dont deal with that. Will need to ask him how big it is and the price of it.



If you're going to get a decent discount then fair enough, might be worth comparing prices to a website like this one as well though http://www.cutplasticsheeting.co.uk/clear-polycarbonate-sheeting.html

Here is how the fronts look now i have them fitted to my 6 with sliders. Still not made anything up to lock they yet but i will find something Big grin
They have turned out better than i was expecting. Weighted the standard windows with electric motors and they are 3.4kg if i remember right and the new polycarb windows are 1.5kg per window.

Not yet got round to fitting rears but will be fitting them this week.

They look really good!

Just a small question, is it possible to hide the rivets that hold them in under the black seal?
