"This Place is Amazing! Someone Broke Into My 2002 Toyota Tundra Platinum and they Broke the Driver’s Side Rear Window. My Insurance Company Kept Offering me Different Places To Go To, and They Said That They Were Going To Replace The Glass with a “ Used Window “ that Cost 💲175.00, that Was Ok I guess. My Insurance Deductible Is Only $250.00 The Cost for The Insurance Company was going to be $250.96. So I was going to be Receiving a Refund For The.96 Cents! Anyways, I’m Assuming That since this wasn’t going to be a Big Money Deal for the Body Shop I wasn’t much of a Priority for Them! My Insurance Company was Doing Everything They Could! But the 3 Places that Sent Me To Wouldn’t Call me Back! So After ALL OF THAT NONSENSE! Jerry at Spot Auto Comes To My Rescue! All of the Repair Shops told me that it would Take Anywhere from 6-12 Hours to Fix It! And they were Trying to Get the Bill way over $500 , So Basically I was Paying for the Whole Repair Including The Used Window! Jerry and his Team had me In and Out in Less than One Hour! That Included Cleaning Up Any and All Broken Glass! For $200.00 That’s $50.00 Less Than My Dedicated! And They Also Replaced It With Brand New Glass! Not some Used one From A Junkyard! I am going to Bring my Wife’s Car Back here To Have her Cars Windows Tinted! 8 Windows on it! ALL Of Them for Less Than $200.00 I Have Been In The Car Business For Well Over 30 Years! And I Have Never Had this Kind Of Quality Treatment and Such Reasonable Prices! They Are Above Amazing! I Will Never Take My Cars Anywhere Else! Why Settle For Less When You Can Get The Best! My Thanks To All of Your Staff! If I Could Give You 10 Stars ⭐️ I Would! Thank You Again!"

"S Brooks: Window Tints has been the best in the business for well over twenty years. I have purchased multiple cars during that timeframe and have not used anyone else but them for window tinting. Randy and staff are always very professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend."

Window Tinting Laws in California

Front Windshield:Non-reflective tint above AS-1 line
Front Side Windows:Must allow 70% of light to pass through
Back Side Windows:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
Rear Window:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
California's strict car window tinting laws require front side windows to have at least 70% VLT (Visible Light Transmission), keeping them relatively clear. Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches. California prohibits red, amber, and blue tinting, and reflectivity cannot exceed standard window levels. Dual side mirrors are required with tinted back windows. Professional window tinting services ensure compliance while providing heat rejection for California's sunny climate.

Please note that window tinting laws may change. Always verify current regulations with your automotive window tinting provider to ensure compliance.
