Window Tint recommendation near Milton Keynes/ Luton

Collieboy · Nov 27, 2017

Well we have finally done the deed and Bought a Cali, the onyx white version.
Wondered if anyone could recommend a Tinting company in the MK/Luton/ Bedford area as I definitely want the rear windows to avoid the goldfish bowl effect.
I'm keen to get someone who has experience of Cali Windows as I understand they are a bit different to the average.
Thanks for any help

Afraid Eclipse in Aylesbury no longer do Auto Tint, only do offices etc now, so open to other suggestions if anyone has had a good experience.

I'm sure that you'll find one closer, but Auto Asylum in Maidenhead, Berkshire do lots of VW's.

They did a Landrover for me 20 years ago and still charge the same today! £250

I haven't done my Cali yet, as am undecided on the final look with double glazed windows and internal reflkection.

Just a thought...Can any of the local dealers not recommend any? I recall when buying other cars that as well as factory tints the dealers did have/offer aftermarket tints.

Hi Collieboy,
I live in Dunstable area. I also recently purchased Ocean and intend to have windows done. I have located a company in Houghton Regis.
Specialist Tint, unit 24, Westbury Close, Townsend Industrial Estate, Houghton Regis, LU5 5BL 01582 667518.
Hope it’s may be of some help.

Thanks for your comments guys, VW vans didn't want to recommend anyone sounds like they did in the past then a customer was unhappy with the quality......
I did see specialist tint in Houghton Regis, but wary of giving my new van to someone with no recommendation.Its one thing doing 3 Range Rover windows and another doing a Cali Ocean with wardrobes and double glazing to contend with.
Thinking I will either use Marks recommendation in Auto Asylum in Maidenhead or the referral I got from Eclipse in Aylesbury to try Bespoke Privacy Glass in that area.
Just trying to work out how to get the Cali over there for a day.

A bit distant possibly but I got mine done in EYE Peterborough. £50 per window with top grade thermal/solar tint film. Book in and wait for it to be done.

Just an update had Auto Asylum car fit a dark tint to the Cali. Very pleased with quality of work but to be honest wish I 'd gone for a limo tint but I was worried that would be too dark inside.
Happy to Recommend Auto Asylum in Maidenhead for any others looking for tint job

Got any pics? Did you end up with the mis-match on rear glass?

Collieboy · Dec 24, 2017

Hi Ady will get some pictures after Christmas going for our first trial outing. Yes there is a mismatch but I understood there is no way to avoid this due to the double glazing
