Hello fellow Jag Lovers,

Please could anyone here assist me with the measurement of the 1985 XJ6 Series III measurement?

I want to buy tint firm for my car but i wonder either to buy 20"X100FT Roll or 40"X100FT Roll so i can at once cover the rear glass.

Please help

Mike

 

So what is the question? do you want to know if the tinted area is greater than 20"?

 

If my vintage fold out imperial ruler is correct the rear glass on my S3 is 21 3/4" high between the top and bottom rubbers.

 

Hi yarpos

Thanks Yarpos,
This means i can buy the 20"X100FT Roll of tint film and will cover the back window

 

Interesting, I thought 20" x 100ft would mean its 20" wide , which wouldnt cover a 21+" screen. Do I misunderstand the meaning of the 20" spec?

 

Just thinking exactly the same Steve.

 

Am confuse myself, this is the website where i want to order the tint film but unfortunately, i have not been able to give them proper window sizes for pre-cutting services the offer for me.

Please check
Window Tint Film 20"x100FT Roll

Thanks

 

Me, as well. Math is not my strong point. But, 20" will not span a 21+ " glass.


Another thought. If the rear screen has a heating grid, will that interfere with the tint?


And, are you sure you want to lessen the view to the rear?


Just sayin...

Carl, i will not use the darker film for the rear window, i will probably use 35% for the rear window.

Thanks

 

In Oz we use window tint a lot, I have all my cars done (except the old Morris , which will never be out on a hot day anyway).

Tinting , if installed properly, works well with the rear window heater. Sometimes the rear window is the most difficult due to slopes, access and trimming around the heater connections (varies a lot by car)

Applying tint is a learned skill and like many things is simple when you know how and have had some practice. We see lots of cars with amateur attempts at fitting and they usually look like a bubbly mess. Its a running joke in our house , when we pull up behind one of those cars, one of will say "do you think they did that themselves?"

I guess my point is that if you are doing this to learn a new skill then please go for it. If you are doing it to save a couple of $ dont bother, just take it to a tinting shop and move on to the next project. Just one guys opinion.

 

Thanks Yarpos, i just want to import the quality material from USA and need the rear Window size for my Jag S3 because the Tint materials in Ghana here are all mostly fake/low quality ones from China. I want to import the quality film from Get LED Lights for Cars and Automotive LED Lights at LexenAuto.com and just need to choose the right size.

 

If your just wanting to import the material then the 20" won't be wide enough so you will need the next size....if your wanting them to cut it to actual side then you will probably need to cut a template (pattern) for them.
