I want to tint the back windows in my 996 but I read in a post that it is difficult to do because of the border "bumps" on the back windows. This is a dot pattern around the windo edge. Any advice?

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.

If you take it to a good shop they won't have any probelms. Understand, you will probably see the bumps even with teh tint over them. I had this on my BMW. I'm pretty fanatic and it didn't bother me.

Search for a previous post I did on "window tinting". The long and short of it is: A reputable shop that works on nice cars daily will not have trouble with it. . On the other hand, if they say that they need to "shave off" the matrix, run out the door screaming. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" />

BTW, That post you should search for is in the 996 Turbo forum, not the regular 996 forum. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" />

Thanks for the input. I also searched the web after my post and found a page dedicated to this "dot matrix" problem. Worth scanning if you're thinking of tinting. Here is the link. <a href="http://www.tintdude.com/dot-matrix.html" target="_blank">tint dude</a>
