    I know this has been gone over before -- I've worn out the search function but haven't found a shop close enough.

    Any reccommendations for a window tint place near Redondo Beach, CA? Or any advice on how to find out? Yelp, citysearch, google.. nothin'.

    Also, if anyone around here has a good Toyota place they go to for service, that would be much appreciated.. I went to Manhattan Beach Toyota for my cousin and it was a terrible experience. I really want to go to an official Toyota place for my 5000 oil change coming up in another 1000 miles.

    Several people have mentioned, and been happy with Tint Connection in Culver City.

    I was hoping there would be something closer -- but I guess with the prius, distance doesn't matter so much. :) Thanks. If I can't find somewhere closer, I'll give them a call.

    Yep. Tint Connection did my Black 07 35% all around. 180 dollars. 3m Film. I have yet to have any problems from police with my front windows at 35%. I have been next to numerous police cars on the road and not a 2nd glance from them. The guy at TC is really nice and they do a lot of Pri, so they know about the heat sensitive pillars and such.

    I just got back from Tint Connection in Culver City and am very happy with the job. Frank was very helpful and professional. I picked out 50% front/35% rear, 3M. It was a little more expensive than I thought it would be ($240), but it looks good and they did it in less than an hour and a half (I went early in the morning).
