Default Going in for window tinting in 45 min... best way to disable the auto window drop: pull fuse?

I think I am going to go with a 90% metallic tint, 25% darkness. Getting the whole car done for $180.

push the lock mechanism in the door in to make it think the door is closed.

Default IMO if they don't know how to do it, you should not let them tint the car

Just my opinion.

My guys even said to try to open and close the doors as little as possible.

FWIW here is a pic of mine, 35% all the way around. WOuld have liked to go a bit darker, but side windows are illegal in NJ and I did not want to have a problem.

Do you hav<ul><li><a href="http://public.fotki.com/madlog/tint/">http://public.fotki.com/madlog/tint/</a</li></ul>

Default Ahh...I see what you are looking for....No, the striker cannot be

done for a week, you would not be able to close the door.

I guess the fuse is your best option.

BTW, a week is along time.....you should be good to go in 3 days.
