For those of us who don't know the Law on the maximum level of tint on the windows in front of the B post (& for those like me who never excelled at Maths at school), hopefully someone will do the homework for us and post it here!

30% maximum tint from B Pillar forwards (70% light must be transferred)
D3's have 18% as standard (82% light transferred)
Rear Windows no legal limit
This is my understanding of the Law, take my advice at your own risk. I have been known to talk  "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

Thanks ever so much for organising this (I obviously owe you a drink). Have booked in with Ben for Thurs next week.
Cheers Fleur If at first you don't succeed.... destroy all evidence that you tried in the first place!!

To save scrolling back through all previous posts, do we need to wait for our receipts before ringing Ben to fix a slot?

Anyone had the job done yet and sampled the delights of 90BHP's recommended watering hole?

In no particular order - call Ben once confirmed. The receipt only confirms the details of how to call him etc - it's all on the website anyway. You have to remember most of his customers drive Corsa's and Saxo's. Some still have to go everywhere with Mummy or Daddy sitting next to them . . . . .
First booking is this Thursday another on Friday.
Pub is good for location and it has beer / bonus next to LR Dealership and Canal. Not saying I hang out there or anything  But it is better than watching security film dry.
If you ask Ben - really nicely and bring your driving licence, he may find you a nail to drive off in - no promises and it's not part of the deal  "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

Hello to all
Had security glass fitted today. Thanks to Ben for doing such a great job (must be down to all his experience!  ) and more thanks to Christian for sorting all this out for us. Truck (Betty) looks 
Sorry Chaps, I didn't sample any of the recommended watering holes, but I did get my nails done! So I can now recommend an excellent nail bar if any of you "Ladies" are interested!! 
Oh, take your own coffee, Ben's choice, decaff and not good!
Good job done. Really glad got it done.
Many thanks again.
Cheers, Fleur. If at first you don't succeed.... destroy all evidence that you tried in the first place!!

 Thank goodness for that, I cannot tell you how pleased I am that you are happy with the result. I know I was really pleased with mine but other peoples perception etc etc It's nice to know that all the discussions were all worth it "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."
