    Does anyone know if the number posted for Martin is the wrong mobile number? It keeps stating it's switched off or not in service - the last couple of days.

    ???

      That's definitely the right number. Maybe his phone is playing up or something... try the email, if all else fails try calling Daniel Gardiner @ Platinum Car Security as they share the same building together, 0411 101 737, let him know that Martins phone is doing funny things.

            Which Tint-A-Car Tint for MK6 GTI?

            Hey guys,

            I have read up on the previous threads and alot of them seem to be comparing tints to match the rear tint you can get optioned onto the MK6 Golf.

            I didnt get this optioned on, so this thread if really just about the tint-a-car tints, which ones are good, and how much you paid.

            I was looking on their website and found these:

            - Formula 1
            - Bolle'
            - Octane
            - Cosmo
            - Midnights Express
            - Viva
            - Unbreakable

            I previously had Midnight express done on my previous car and it looked fine. However there are a few more options now compared to when I got mine done, and I was wondering what people recommenced and what the differences actually were between them? as the website seems to be lacking actual specs on the tint.

            I am getting a White 3 Door GTI if that helps with what tint I should get?

            Thanks.

              I brought my car in for midnight express (which I had on a previous car and was happy) but the guy had no current stock of it so he agreed to do Formula 1 for the same price as midnight express.
              It has a lifetime warranty but I think that's quite academic since you'd have gotten rid of the car within several years anyway.
              What I do notice:
              1. Formula 1 is not as dark as ME, however, its only very slight. My previous car had a light interior, my current GTI has black leather so from the outside, it is just as dark looking as the ME.
              2. Looking out of the car seems clearer with Formula 1 at night, though only very subtle, probably because you can still make out colours of cars better.
              3. In bright sunlight, the Formula 1 reflects more light back giving it almost a mirror finish (the ME is more matt black and doesn't reflect as much).

              Let me know how you go on your decision.
              PS I probably wouldn't pay MORE for the Formula 1 unless he could give you a similar deal/price to match ME.

                I have sent an email off to my local tint-a-car to get a quote on Midnight Express and Forumla 1. I dont know what to expect price wise.

                Should it be cheaper since im getting the 3 Door Golf?

                Now I think about it, Id imagine that putting the tint on the rear glass on the 3 Door GTI would be a pain, because you cant open the doors and work outside the car?

                Or is the tint installed on the outside of the car?

                  The Tint is installed on the inside of the windows. I don't think it should really have any effect on the cost whether it's a 3 door or 5 door. It's much of a muchness which one takes the longest, and it isn't really any harder for them to work from the backseat - apart from the water is dripping into the car (they'll have towels and stuff, so don't stress).

                        Be good if you could order no dark glass from the factory (for cars that come with it stock), is that possible?

                          if you get sports pack you get the stupid glasses no way around i think. i asked and the dealers said they cant do it. when you do your tine use a darker one in the front and a lighter one in the back and it should look the same. i'll post a pick if i get a chance

                            Cheers, didn't think it would be possilbe.

                            would be much better without it, then get the whole car tinted at an aftermarket place.

                            I had Sungard Eclipse tint on my last car and looked awesome, good film.

                                Another recommendation for Rob from Hunters Hill Window Tinting. Decided that with the forum reviews on him being positive to try him. He came to my place and did tint on my other car (Not a VW, shock horror!). Very neat job, professional, meticulous and also punctual. Said he would be there at 7am, he was. All up took about 1 1/2 hours.
                                No affiliation etc, just a happy customer.
