well for me I dont care about how dark the tint is, as long as it cut 10c out of the car in summer.
front clear, front 2 sides 90% all rear is 70%.
I just Finnish sticking the UV and IR film at me house and it is much cooler now.

BTW keith you could have kept you 3m Tints when you had the MOT it will pass

Got it done at Sun Hip Ley. Probably Chinese or Korean stuff? I got my car done there too. Just hope I won't get cited or I need to rip mine too.

AP - more comfort and little soft.
Sachs - no comments.
B8+Eibach - more sporty than others.
