I would like the tinted rear windows in my Mk7 Golf but I am being quoted £200 plus and I was wondering if it would be cheaper to buy the factory windows off of a breaker and get them fitted. But if anybody in the vicinity of South Wales,Avon or Gloucestershire that knows of anybody that can do it cheaper or does it themselves I would be very grateful

the rear doors are easy enough, an hour , maybe an hour and half each, but the rear is bonded in, so thats best left to a glass fitter who will want 50 bucks to do that. so, 3 hours plus 50 quid and you dont have much money left to buy the tinted glass with, maybe 30 quid, depending on someones hourly rate. i am in pembrokeshire and charge 35 an hour. much easier to just go to a tinters and get them tinted.

Thanks very much for your help. So are you a glass fitter or a tinter?

neither, just a bog standard garage. any glass fitting or tinting gets sent somewhere else.
