In a post i will log later this week I will provide an update on the sale of my HSE - - looking at its replacement I will be choosing detail on the replacement - the HSE going has unknown tints, I am interested in what others have opted for - I am not keen on an extreme A pillar B pillar contrast (ie clear to Limo) and think what I have now is what pentagon call smoke from the A pillar back...

what have others gone for in the aftermarket range, clear front and full privacy rear of the B pillar or gradual, closer contrast options ?

I am needing to make this decision on a remote order hence polling opinion

For comment the penatgon website (other tinters are available) has some good images of the effects,

what would / did you choose between the A and B pillar and rear of the B pillar

just to point out as it might be the same on the RRS

The standard glass on the FL2 does have a tint in it, and is within 1% of the legal limit, so applying any exta tint to the front windows will make it illegal and you might face a fine and points if the police take a dislike.

Edit: Disco3 have had a group buy on security glass laminate with tints included, stops the smash and grab type thefts.

One member here has had Zermatt Silver coloured (not mirrored!) film applied to the windows aft of the B post, he removed the rear seats and has a flat load floor put in and runs an RRS S/C commercial.............................. not sure if it counts with customs and revenue for VAT relief though 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I can't see that in his post, obvious on another thread

Light smoke/smoke would be nice

Tim ... NO ! that is the outgoing car! (at last)

Good point NP - Black with Black interior

Tempted NP but unsure if tinted enough? This is the prob of remote buying without witnessing first

Thanks to both for quick feedback

Maw if you have a few hours to spare try looking through the galleries to see what's there 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Plan that for tomorrow Tim but it is then knowing what 'grades' they are...

on black i would light smoke fronts and midnight the rears

but might look a little 50 Cent if you went darker

I think it does all depend on the colour you're buying into... I think white with tints looks fantastic, but it can be a little lost on the blacks unless you for one of the darkest tints. All subjective though
