Window Tint

Whats that type of tint where your windows are black as night and no1 can see the inside of your car? Can you apply tint to the window of a door that won't open from the inside or outside of the car?

Most people call it Limo tint. A tint shop should be able to tint any window, moving or not.

I guess so, as long as they can get inside the car. Why don't you get the door fixed first?

Most Limo Tint I have seen is 5%.

I have seen 20% labeled as Limo Tint

I think I'd rather have a vehicle with working doors, than a tint job.

Plus it's a safety issue. What if you're in a wreck and people can't get out of the car because the doors are F'd up. You'd feel pretty bad then.

I have been in a Monte Carlo with three layers of 5% on the back window, and two layers of 5% on the sides. Like sitting in a cave at night

I've just found out you can't tint your windows on a f'd up door so it looks like I'm going to have to go to a locksmith 1st!!!
