I need to learn a little about tinting for our gym. Its in a converted space in
what was an old bank. I don't know how old the building is, I'd guess late
1800s or early 1900s. I suspect there isn't much insulation and it's tough to

audio in the W126 and similar vintage cars, the Continental head units are
fantastic with modern features like Bluetooth and look period correct - even

What is everyone's opinion on window tint as far as brands? Also,
opinions on using it on older cars such as 123 etc? My opinion is that
