Default Tinted Windows

Is there any way to get the back windows tinted like on the MDX and other SUVs??? Or is it possible to order the windows on the Harrier in Japan?

It's possible Probably way too costly and unreasonable. You'd have to replace the glass. I guess you want the tint to look black instead of mirrored? I like the black look too, but also like the mirror - not everyone has it.

That's true...one of the things I don't like about the mirror tint is matching it up with an aftermarket film to tint to front windows. If the factory tint was black, I could tint to front windows easily. Oh well, I guess others will just have to see my face while I am driving around

There is a RX300 near my house. Has the factory tint but with black tint somehow over it so it is black mirrored tint. He has it all the way around. I was amazed when i saw his RX. IT has 20s, weird tint job. JAOS Billet Grille. Ground effects. Custom Stereo. very nice looking.

Default tint on my RX

i got a black RX, i put a 13% black tint on the back windows..

and put one layer of 35% mirror tint, and another layer of 20% black..on the front windows..even on that lil triangle next to the dash.it matches..very nice and dark..

and if u want to replace the windows..smash it..and claim insurance. haha. hey.. $500(deductible) for all windows?..not bad.
