I got 35% all round coz think it looks best when all the tints are the same instead of darker at the back sides. And dont thikn you'd get stopped for have 35% tints I've not had any problems on mine.
Dunno anywhere in east yorkshire, mine where done in Bredbury, near Stockport not far from me.
These some pix in my garage if ya wanna see what 35% is like.

35% on all the others sounds good to me... £150 nice price, would he do it for me at that price?? ...... as its only 2hrs away (Bedbury near manchester right?)..... then I can take the gf to the trafford centre at the same time, kill two birds with one stone so to speak

Year it is near Trafford Centre, it's only about 5 mins down the motorway actually! Not sure if he could get me another deal though as my mate works at Audi in Stockport and gets all his new audi tinted there so did it through him rather than the actual tint company! I had to pretend I was my mates brother to get discount, lol, bet the guy at tints place could well tell I wasn't related to him dont look anything like him!

The complete cost for tinting the windows on your Vaux Corsa 3dr is £170 + VAT for any shade (Front windscreen not inlcuded).

Your choice of tint shades are:

· Extra light - 50% Visible Light Transmittance (VLT)

· Light (35% VLT)

· Medium (20% VLT)

· Dark (5%VLT = Limo black).

Our film grade is a neutral grey/black named - Sunguard PerformX Steel.

On ALL vehicles we only fit our light shade of tint (35% VLT) to the front drivers & passenger doors, this is for your safety and visibility reasons.

Please note the following:

· Installation time is 2 to 3 hours depending on your model.

· We work by appointment only, so please call as soon as possible for reservation.

· All appointments require a non-refundable deposit (20%) to secure your appointment.

· We require you to bring your vehicle to the workshop promptly. (There is a waiting room if you choose to watch the installation process).

This is the quote i had!!
