I went to a Llumar tint installer yesterday to talk with an installer and see products they may have displayed. I showed him pictures of my coach and gave him some dimensions of the windows, described the working area inside and asked for a ROM (Rough Order of Magnitude -25%, +50%) or SWAG (Scientific Wild A$$ Guess) on what it would cost. Just the body windows with CTX was $1,300-$1,600. He will come to my house 7/22/23 to get a look at the job and give me an accurate quote.
I asked about using their Stratos (highest end tint) product and he said it would double the price. There is another product from Llumar in between these two I'll ask about when he does the estimate.
I didn't include the driver and passenger side windows but I will have him estimate them and the full windshield. The windshield will be a tricky install because of the size and curves. I'm interested in the lightest tint available for all windows.
I'll keep you posted on the results.
I'm leaning more towards tint than making magnetic covers. The cost will be at least 50% to 75% more and the advantages with tint are set it and forget it, no storage space taken up either. A downside is no matter how little the tint is on the windshield, night time visibility will be affected. I don't drive at night as much as I needed to while I was working so this may not be a huge detraction.
