   What up tint world First of all I'm new to the forums, so I praise all you pros that been going for years and value your advice and expertise. I opened my own shop a couple years ago. Have any of you tinters had this car to tint? Any problems? What would you say is the best way to do it? Can't remember the last time I did a convertible here.

   Heads up. The rear window is like the new BMW 650. Does not roll up all the way with top down. Heres how I did it, pretty straight. Closed top and roll window up. Used some plastic mask (for stickers, less adhesive than paper) and layed it over glass tucking the corners. drew the outline. rolled the window down just a bit to mark the top edge. Transferred pattern to tint film leaving about 1/4" overlap at top. Open the top and roll the dindow down the test fit. Wet and set the film and cut the top edge. Close the top and then tint the window like a side roll-up. Theres surprisingly enough room back there to get in and slide the film in without too much trouble.

    This ones like the others, with the amp on the drivers side. I wrapped it in a plastic bag, covered it with a towel and then stuffed one up above it. I checked it about 45 min later and there was not a drop of moisture. I did go light on the water, but I'll definetly do it again. Just not worth the risk.

I haven't touched one yet just in case but I hate turning cars away, is it just a few isolated cases? whats the latest? they've been out for a good while now I've done loads of A4s which also have the amp/subwoofer assy under the deck, never had a problem with any of these

    99 Audi A6 gasket removal

    July 11, 2007 by Guest darkdan

    • 3.2k views

    Okay, door panels are off. Wow, 2 screws and pull up. But HowTF do you get the gasket out? Normally I wouldn't bother, but this is a rip and redo. He's a previous customer and during the past year 2 windows have peeled up and now that we're doing it I noticed today all four roll downs had a spot that wanted to start peeling. So I need to get it down below both gaskets. Do they not come out? Is it glued? Are they just really stuck and I'm being a sissy and just need to pull harder? Seems like they want to rip before coming out. I can't seem to find an edge either. Feel free to move this to the audi section, I just needed the general section for high traffic.

    Sorry for some dumb questions here but got a 05 A8 to do today and just want to be prepared. 1) Is the rear window process of removing both upper, lower seats and rear deck necessary on these yet? I am assuming yes but just want to double check. 2) Do I need to disconnect side air bags or anything from going off if water gets on the connectors? 3) Do you pull the door seals on these or just tuck it?

    Hey guys just a couple of questions, I been reading up on audi's with the tight door gaskets an not to take the door panel off because you can't get them back on how they was. I just had a customer call about one an i gave him a good price. I am abit nervous about it as the bad things i heard of these vehicles. Its rear only so no front windows to do!! Any good advice? As you can all see i only been at it a year an i haven't experienced a lot of makes / models. Thanks guys
