Default I didn't realize that the sensor would be on the rearview mirror for the sides
If it is then that is correct I should not have any issues since the light comming in would be dimmer alread.y

If it isnt then that is when I may have a problem with the sideviews.

Thanks

Default I'm not 100% sure of sensor location, but you can try to shine a light at the sensor
on the rearview and see if side mirrors will dim. That should give it away ;-)

Default I assume ceramic means metallic or titanium tint, correct? My B6 had titanium/metallic tint..
and I really liked it on my Dolphin Grey.

Now I am confused, the pic does look good. But there is just something about a black car with smoked tint.... hmmmm

Guess I will just make the decision tomorrow morning while I am there.
