I have a 2018 Prius V and just moved into a place that doesn't have an attached garage. So my poor Prius sits outside, uncovered and protected like a scared fawn, getting roasted by the current heatwave and getting all sorts of UV damage on the interior.
So I'm looking at getting an all-window tint with UV protection and heat blocking as my main priorities. Here in Ontario we get a terrible winter, so I don't know how many of these benefits carry over to winter.
Two local garages are offering two different products, but I have no idea which one to go with. It's either:
3M Color Stables series. This costs $340 CAD + tax.
Autobahn i3 for $499 CAD + tax
I like 3M. A lot. But I know that Huper Optik is really good, too.
I don't want overly dark tint. I really just want a reflective tint that blocks out heat and UV. Which one between these two is the better pick for the Prius?
Autobahn i3 VERSUS 3M Color Stable Series. Which way would you go?
