[QUOTE="beemerback, post: 697905, member: 24011"] I have tried 8mil before and 9mil would be an overkill. No doubt the thicker the film the better but the tinted windows are only unbreakable in terms of an outright smashing by someone i.e. using a baton or a brick Burglars using special tools can break the window edges and then be able to remove the whole glass without shattering it (because of the film). So in my opinion it is pointless to install films which are too thick as it only makes it easier for the thief to take off the whole window from the car door panel. Besides that, like what our fellow members said in the above, in the event of an emergency it would be difficult to get out. I think 6mil would be sufficient. [/QUOTE]
