Motovation
Done one today at my local dealership , was my first time on a defender ,i must say its one of the most trickiest ones to date for me

This isnt the one i did but very similar,it has sliding rear quarters also no matrix on any of the rears.11 windows in total not inlcuding the front two.
I will post up the pictures once i get them off my mobile.


anyone else did one?

Yep - those sliding windows are a pain in the ass and I removed the small port hole windows at the back, it is a pain to get the rubbr back in on those.


How did you go on with the sliders

Fxxked it the first time round took me two attempts on each slider, i had to look back and think basicly its a roll down on its side and took things from their.having to cut the film about 1mm in from the straight edge then try and do the same at the curved edge where the opener is bolted.i didnt think id be able to tint it withought removing any glass but i did.it turned out spotty dog aswell ;) was very pleased with it.

There are areas on the sliders that you cannot get too.
Motovation
Their is no area you cannot get to on the defender.The rear window is a pain to with the heating element connections at either side at the bottoms.

Aagh..you must be the best ever then... dunno.gif there is a small area where water removal is not guaranteed - it normally dries eventually.

Ah great. I have just had a guy ring me up wanting a 2005 Defender doing.

Knew they would be a pig, going to give him a crazy price I think and try and scare him off. If he agree's I will just take a day to do it and count the money at the end!

Not looking forward to it though

What a pain in my ass this is being, came on here to get some tips but think the general idea is just take your time and bully the job!

Tough one, will post pics when its done
rob@solartint

removed rubber'd windows (rear, two back small and top long thin ones) - beading is a mare AR15firing.gif

sliders to do tommorow first knockings, couldnt face them after an afternoon on the beading!











For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
