I think you should get 3 miles of wire connected to it and hide the wire all round the car.  Export the car to Japan and they can then know how we feel with the "whats this" :evillaugh

Perhaps you should put some LEDs in the back window or something that lights up? :)

haha.. some great ideas guys! I\'m going to have the windows tinted before i do anything with it.. I\'m going to try do the tints myself.. it\'s not going to be easy but its worth a bash before forking out £££ for a pro to do it.. especially when the film only costs like £10!! The back is going to be 5% limo black.. (very pimp). The driver and passenger will be the darkest legal tint.. which i believe is about 70-75%?.. I\'ve ordered the tint for the back first to see if i can do that first.. quite looking forward to trying it for some weird reason..

Anyone else done it?

P.S. If anyone is thinking of removing their back wiper then i can supply arcade button plugs which fit perfect and sit flush with the window. OR of course i can sort you out with a button.. hehe! :)

as your gonna try tinting urself then the bast advice i can give is for the back window. get a mate or 2 to help u.

step 1
u need to get the film and b4 u cut it.. place the whole film over the rear window on the outside of the car n pull it taught.
make sure u get it the right way round as when u open the tint packet it should show u which is the sticky side that needs to be placed against the inside of the glass.

step 2
then get a fren to hair dry / heat gun it so it warms up a bit and will bend with the curves of the window. then let it cool.. this will give the film some shape.

please do not miss that step out!!! very important!!!! VERY IMPORTANT!!

step 3
then once its got some shape to it clean the inside of the window.
cut down film a bit to make it bit more manageable.

step 4
wet inside of the glass with warm soapy water (lil bit of fairy liquid in a squerty bottle) then spray on window.

step 5
remove  the protective layer on the tint n squert the tint with soapey water n place onto glass. (dont worry, the tint will not stick straight away and can be easy positioned)

step 6
get like a credit card or sth similar (plastic with flat edge, if using credit card wrap it inside a kitchen towel so less likely to scratch the tint) then apply n scrape the air out of the tint.

step 7
once u get to the edges then get a very sharp blade n cut round the edge to fit n squeeze rest of the air out.

if u find that at some areas at the edges the tint does not stay stuck to the glass then apply a bit of heat (heatgun / hair dryer) to it. that will soften the tint so can shrink a bit n fit nicely.

job done!
-----

i suggest u do the side windows 1st n leave the back til last. side windows r easier n can learn as u go along.

with the side windows you can just place tint straight on without heating tint on the outside (ie start at step 4)

again if there are some areas where the tint does not stick then heat it up a bit n then go over it with a card to get air out.

last touch for the side windows is when u cut the film around the upper edge of the window cut it so that the tint does not stick out over the edge.
finish it off by sealing the tint to the glass with clear nail varnish once the water is dry.
this will ensure the tint does not get pulled out when the window closes and rubs against the top rubber bit on the door.
---

best time to do the tint is on a warm (ish day) out of direct sunlight. the reason for the warm day is that the air is less dense so can get more air pockets out n then when its a hot day theres no air to expand causing bigger air pockets in tints..

i hope this all helps n makes scense =)

good luck. =)

oh.. also.. if you do **** it up.. try nt let the tint dry out as when u take the tint off when its dry it leaves sticky crap all over the glass which is a bit of a bitch to get off again!!

the more water the merrier =)

for the push button message, sth like \'theres always one person who has to push the button!\' or \'you coulnt just leave the button alone now could you?!\'
