2015 Sweeps - You'll have to take the panels off. I didnt even bother with doing that. Windows - Their pretty fair. Just squeegee out the top pretty good then roll up the window and do the rest. Back Glass - super easy! DIFFICULTY: 3/5

Someone must have done one by now. The rest is cake but how did you do the doors? Did you pull the panels or tuck the film? The gasket seems very tight.

Here is a Cooper S I did in Marathon 20% in the rear and 35% on the front doors. I also had to hook it up with one of my custom cut sunstrips. The windshield had some serious bow to it. The best thing about my jig, is you can take out as much curve as you want to. Either alittle or alot. this one I went for as straight of a line as possible.

Can anyone give me info on how to remove the door panel gaskets on this thing? I tried removing the panel, but the rubber is molded to some aluminum rail, and if you try to remove that, the entire window/motor assembly wants to come out. The 'door latch trick' doesn't work on this car either. I wouldn't mind, just tint it with the window down an inch, if I could get this stupid gasket out!

Mini Cooper Clubman

Just did my first Clubman. Finished it in about an hour. Doors are the same, it has one long quarter glass behind the driver door. Behind the passanger door is a small suicide door with a glass, small quarter behind that and the back window is a barn door style with some small windows that need a little shrink.

I haven't gotten my manual (bible) yet...it's been ordered, just not delivered... I have a Mini Cooper S on the schedule for this weekend. Can anyone tell me what the height of the windows are? I'll be ordering a roll of film for it, but I don't want to order a 40" roll if I don't need it. It looks like a 20" roll would fit all windows...anyone? Thanks, Bryan

Has anyone done one of these. What a cake walk. Did my first one today, took about 1.5 hours, next one will be done in under an hour. The only thing is the windows drop when you open the doors (like other BMW's), but other than that they are a easy buck!!

MINI COOPER S

I am a Cooper S driver and I was wondering what a reasonable price would be to get the entire vehicle tinted. I live in Texas and I know that the limit is 35 front, 35 back, any rear. Knowing this, I would like (preferably) the legal limit and the back as dark as possible to the point where I can still see through it well. I would like to have the iridescent tint where it is like a one-way mirror. What is that option called? Thank you in advance.

My summa plotter wont connect to my computer even tho i have all plugs plugged in
I sometimes have problems with my plotter not cutting or even my program not detecting my plotter. When this happens, I go to system, device manager, Ports (Com & LPT) You should be able to see your plotter listed and the Com port it is associated with. Make sure your cutting program is pointing to the same device and Com port in the program's setup area. I usually end up sorting things out eventually. Other than this, I have no other advice as I'm just a novice computer tech 😬 -

Help me tint my living room windows
Blinds/curtains will be the best route. You would have to add a dark window film to reduce the sun a good amount but not eliminate it. Anything darker will be extremely noticeable from the outside. Anything lighter will not be drastic enough to make a difference. -

Help me tint my living room windows
I have a living room with windows on the east and south and knowing what I know about the effectiveness of even the darkest film, which comes with hazards of thermo stress on the dual pane glass ... I set the TV in the corner between the two windows. Viewing the TV and the windows in the same field of vision. There will always be a reflection of the windows on the TV, just muted. Curtains are the best solution for this issue.- 1

Help me tint my living room windows
I live in a second story apartment and there are two windows in my living room, one facing east and one facing north. My TV is against the wall facing left and my couch is against the north wall right next to the window. In the late morning and early afternoon the sun shines through the east window and casts an annoying reflection on my TV, and sometime around 1 or 2 pm every day the sun gets right in my eyes when I am sittin or lying on my couch even when I am facing the TV. I want to cover these windows with just the right film for solving all of these problems while also making it not look obvious that I tinted them, and I'm not sure what kind I should use because apparently different brands will have different results even if it's the same percentage, could someone help me out here
