That was the best $$$ I've spent on my vette yet! It's so much cooler now! The only thing that killed me is that you couldn't roll the windows down for 3 days or clean them for 14 days!

Thanks,

Yes it's as legal ad Idaho allows, I think 35%?

It was $200 for the whole job (2 windows and the back), took them 6 hours, but they did it right!

Looks great!

Just make sure when you do clean them, it's with an ammonia free cleaner

You're going to find it much more comfortable in the cabin on hot days. Looks great.
