    Waiting to get my Prime tinted. 3M color stable 35 for all 3 rear windows. 3M Crystalline 70 front side and 90 front windshield. I'll post some photos when it's done.

    Same here (Austin TX, although Houston even more so!) especially since you can't get cloth seats on the Advanced trim...

    It's pretty indirect, granted, but reducing demand on climate control system can increase your range.

    I know I'm at least planning to put tint on our Prime's windows. That is IF the state of Indiana permits it (some states don't OR limit the "level" of the tinting... I need to look into that) :unsure: ... IF the "War Department" gives me the OK to do so :confused: ... and, of course, IF we ever get the darned car... :mad: ........

    IF you ever get your Prime, this is the IN law:

    Indiana Window Tint Law

    Good Luck! (y)

    Well, I get a charge if I get more than 30,
    in IN! Hey the Crippled Snail is back up to 36 EV, but there has been a bit of sweating during our recent heat wave!
    Global Warming, what's that!? I'm a Republican, I'm going to ignore it til it goes away!. What would Abe (my hero) do??

    Well it's obvious, isn't it? You go to the "Corvair Convertibles" of course!! I feel that somehow, I've lost my way....
    Ok, ok, from now on we follow the rules.
