Default Seems high - - the dealer...>>>

usually contracts it out to a local tint shop... Find out who they use and go directly to them unless the dealer can get you a better deal, of course...

I did like using a tint shop that was familiar with the TT since it does have some somewhat unique characteristics (taking into account that the widows do that "auto up" after the door shuts for example)...

Default i fear a crappy tint job....

dont know why but feel like I can trust the dealer. when i called a local shop and told them an audi tt, they asked if it was a 4 door or a 2 door.

Default I know where you're coming from, but it would be a shame to pay

Stealership prices when you could go direct to the third party and get the same job done for a better price ;-)

Default Yes, I think so. That is what I've got.

Had it put on three years ago and it looks as good now as it did then.

Can't go wrong with 3M, Llumar or SolarGard... All good.
