Custom Windows

Postby NZVengeance » Tue Jan 22, 2008 10:44 am

Does anyone know of someone preferably in Auckland but doesn't have to be, that can do the following.

Custom make windshields Front/Rear and side windows to fit not standard windows frames on a car?

sorry to hijack this but

what would be the legality of having custom rear and back screen custom made and have it stained at the same time, like on most new toyotas,

would one need a cert ? is it even worth pursuing ?
Nothing to see here ...

I guess that one would just fall under window tinting, so if you follow the rules, 35% and no tint on front i'm sure it would be fine.

just a guess, but I don't see the difference between a film on the window making it 35% and the window itself being tinted

we aren't able to tint the front windshield however out of the factory many cars come with like a 5% tint normally bronze or green. so would that be allowed?

you talking about the top of the windscreen? if so I think the legal requirement of that is that it doesn't extend down further than what the sun visors do.

no. on my VW golf there is a standard tin on the front windshield in bronze. with the naked eye its very very hard to tell its even there. it is designed i believe just to help with glare.

I think thats allowed because it comes like that from factory & its such a minuscule amount of tint the powers at be turn a blind eye, & they know when its broken it will be legal again
