Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I hate the way my car looks with tinted side windows but a clear plastic rear window. Is there any way to tint it? I have heard about spray-tint, but am obviously apprehensive of using it on my car. Anyone have experience or suggestions?

POST 3Original post

When I had my rear windo replaced I asked about this exact thing. The guy said he did a few with marine plastic designed for boats that were tinted, but after a short time they looked bad because the darker color attracted the sun and heated up more, and thus made it wear funny, visible crease lie where it folded etc....he didnt recommend that route...he said, not much you can do....lemme know what you find out.....if anything, I'd be interested....I dont wanna go with the aftermarket top with the glass window as its MUCH smaller than the plastic window, and I like th evisibility I get from it.....oh well, you cant have it all right?

POST 4Original post

i don't think so...... not without compromising a lot other things.... go with aftermarket with a glass window......

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Where can I get a sample of the same plastic as the window?? (so that I can do a test with the spray tint)

POST 6Original post

I checked into this every which way from Sunday when I replaced my top and window a few year ago. There is really NO way to do this and it look like it belongs on a 100K car. Our CAB was only 3 years old when it had to be replaced and PCNA denied ALL FUTURE claims about a month before I requested mine. I'm assuming this was Vegas specific. My SA told me they were replacing these on a regular basis. The Vegas heat and UV destroys the fabric and the plastic rear window. My grey top when it was replaced was acutally a BROWN color. Argh! The did replace (creative warranty claim) the covering that runs across the back from flap to flap (and the flap too) in black so they would match my new black top.

POST 7Original post

go to an automotive upholstery shop that does convertibles - most of them should do both. and they probably will have a sample you can use.
