Had the windows on my new 2004 530 tinted today (the same day I bought the car ) by "A Perfect Tint" in Mission Viejo, CA. They not only did a great job but you should know that if you don't remove the inside panels of the car to cover the AMP - water from the tinting process could damage or destroy your AMP and Electronics.

If your local to "A Perfect Tint" - you will be safe.

Do the 525i without the premium sound package have an amp installed in the car? Should I worry about it? Are amps only installed with the premium sound package?

How much did they charge for the tint? Are there different types of film? Do they have infrared and UV filter?

They use LLUMAR Film (Seems to be the Standard and offers a lifetime warranty). they charged me just under $200 US.
