Hi,
I have tinted glass on all my side windows, but a clear rear window. I called Parts Heaven to purchase a tinted rear window, but they dug through 40 and said they were all clear and didn't think 914s ever had tinted rear windows. True? I just thought my rear window had been mismatched, but maybe not... ? -Steve |

FWIW, I dunno if you really want a significantly tinted rear window. (The factory tint, if any, was probably extremely light.) The PO of my car had all the side/rear glass tinted to a medium shade. It was a very nice job i.e. no bubbles or obvious borders...but I could not see SQUAT out the back. I had to rip the film off just to perform basic functions like backing out of the driveway. It obviously has a lot to do with the severe angle of the glass in the 914, and the lighting/reflection conditions from the rear view mirror. My Audi has "limo tint" on the back glass and I can see perfectly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
