Hi, I'm new to the forum.
I've read all the posts and now I'm a bit nervous about my upcoming window-tinting appointment this week...
I saw the list of question that AcuraKid posted, so thought I called the tint shop where I'm going to have the tinting done and see how they'd answer (www.tropictint.com). The technician I spoke to insisted that the moleskin (felt) is un-necessary because they 'do it right', and that the moleskins actually come off within the first week and would actually cause scratching. This place uses Llumar UV Shield (metallized), and the tech assured me that it does not, and will not interefere with my navigation system...He's claimed to have worked on many TL's and has yet to hear a complaint about the GPS receiption or scratch...
what should I do folks? Stick to the appointment ($269+tax) or forget it? any help is greatly appreciated!
