I don't see the point in spending money for useless things.

But it's your own. Good job on it.

actually that strip is not useless at all. i had it on my accord and let me tell you, it helps significantly. especially when the sun is in the spots where the visor doesnt cover.

I have both generation 4 & 6 Camrys. The Gen 6 Camry windshield is more slanted than before. I hope with this windshield tint I could use the sun visor less often.

it's far from useless...but doesn't look very pleasing to the eye.

Windshield tinting is usually done in southern asian countries...mostly bec. of sunny weather.

I don't know. I had the same question too. The shop only said the strip is seven inches.

Would you please post pictures of the panel that houses the push start button. I am planning and will get a push start button on my Camry some how. Thx.

Eric.

At least it's legal. Cop can't tell the difference if it's too long or not.

If you like it, I like it.

The push button is shown in the photo. It is glowing with red light on the right of the steering column.

There are laws on how far down the tint can go. Usually cops wont notice if its within 2 inches extra length. It is definitely useful but I also don't think it looks that nice. Maybe if you could get the tint to fade from dark on top to clear with the extra inch or 2 of tint, without having that solid cutoff line it would look better.

I think that it looks great, and it also works great.
