I know a few of you have used a company for this, can you let me know who please with contact numbers etc.

Cheers

Mark, got my 3 back windows done a couple of years ago at JAE for £120.

There is a place in Canvey Island but not sure what they are called.

Plenty of companies that will come to your house and do it, just make sure you get a decent company.

PS - it's fun learning to reverse in the dark

I'll give the guy a call tomorrow see what he says, if it's a go for a group buy I will start a new thread. If not £75 is still cheap.

Tbh worth having the lot done at that price. I love the SpecD's graduated tints back to front.

Yeah he done Gooners work car - total black out on the rear windows (estate) and rear doors, excellent job and it was a nightmare trying to reverse out of the place and not be able to see a damn thing LOL. He gave us a bit of a discounted rate for the disco - but never got it up there before it died. Defo give him a call though

(just realised I'm signed in As Gooner )

I had Flowline do mine, he does all the main Merc/BMW garages and does a first class job.

The last number I had for him was 07860 455689, and he lives in Hullbridge.

I had this photoshop done of mine some time ago.....I really must get around to getting it done!



Will then have to get in touch with Tissy to see if he is still doing the reversing cameras with the infra-red for reversing at night!
