    Nope, and no one else does either. It's all a matter of lighting. As long as there is more light inside than out, you'll always be able to see in at night.

    When I was a kid I was at a friend's house.  Climbing around in a tree.  We had been climbing for hours. I had been stepping on this on cut off limb that was dead.  I stepped on it one time more than I should have.  I feel about 10 feet onto my back.  If I had been just a little over I would have been impaled by a fence post and might not be here. 
     
    Moral of this is,  just because it works and has doesn't mean it is safe... that "limb" may break!

    So I was technically a Suntek dealer years ago but they've changed things and at this point unless I wanted to get some sort of actual license I think and really wanted a minimal sales/ film purchases for the year.  I've been in this game and nothing but tent for 24 years next month and never needed to have anything like a business license here in Illinois. I've been a Llumar dealer and a Suntek dealer both....

    The black frit on the front is to frame the cameras, wires,  and sensors.  Small dots are generally to make a eye pleasing transition. Large dot area are too shade the interior.

    Lots of crap to cut around,  curved glass,  tight quarters,  generally not as clean as a car...
     
    Can't say film size but you should be charging a LOT for this.  Like 3 to 4 times what you charge for a full car or more. 
     
    I won't do equipment.  Mental stress is too much.  Never get them as clean or excellent as I want.

    I would bet you're seeing low angle haze.  Ceramic films can be bad at this.  Don't know that it's worse with polarized glasses.

    In the dark factory glass you aren't going to help much tinting the inside.  The heat is already getting absorbed into the glass.  The external perf vinyl is your best bet.  Easy to install.  Cutting the edges will be your biggest learning curve.

    Yeah,  good luck.  I wouldn't want you in my shop either.  No such thing as "prefect" and you didn't ever have a perfect tint job.  You just didn't see the small flaws.
