R3sp3ct Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hi all, Does anyone know how to remove tint or would be be easier to get it done at a shop??? I also failed because my child restraint brackets were in the middle of the speaker and not in front of the speaker, what do I do about that Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218105-removing-tint/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANG Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 they failed me for the restraints fouling on the speakers, didnt say anything about how they were also behind the speaker. i just pulled the speakers out and they passed it. i just sat there with a razor blade and eucolyptus oil removing the tint, wasnt hard, be careful if you do that on hte rear window not to scrape the de-mist lines Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218105-removing-tint/#findComment-3848603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
W1ngnut Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Out of curiosity R3sp3ct, what was your tint % at Dickson, and what tint % did you pay for? Interested to see if it was the same..

666DAN Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 A good liberal spray of cloudy ammonia will loosen tint Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218105-removing-tint/#findComment-3852353 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tint is 20% apparently and it came with the car when i got it a few months ago. I really dont want to remove it.

W1ngnut Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 My tint is 20% apparently and it came with the car when i got it a few months ago. I really dont want to remove it. No worries. I was quite curious because I paid to get my tint done and done legally (35%), yet when Dickson measured the windows, both fronts were 31% (the rest were all 35% exactly). The guy stared at me for a while and walked off and if they didn't get me for 4mm to low, i reckon he would have complained about my tint as well...

Because they new they could get me on it they didnt go over the rest of the car... Has coil overs, and much more they could of failed me for. They didnt want to pass it when i took it back with a standard system on it. But they had to. Its good to have something easy for them to fail you on Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218105-removing-tint/#findComment-3860841 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiTAN Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Otherwise they get you because the reflectors in your brake lights arent reflective enough. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/218105-removing-tint/#findComment-3860950 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3sp3ct Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 Anyone know what I should do about the child restraint brackets? They are mounted in the middle of the speaker but apparently should be in front of them??

Thats an odd one as both times I have been through the pits and they looked at the child restraints, mine are smack bang in the middle of the speakers as well.... There isn't much room to put them in front of the speakers is there? If we have a local place in the ACT that sorts out imports for compliance they may be able to assist, as they would surely have to do it all the time...
