Do you recommend doing the roof tint? I know they have factory tint that protects you from uv ray and heat .

If you're looking into some real heat rejection rate, and want your vehicle to be as heat resistant as possible, it is highly recommended! Just make sure who ever is installing these large portions of glass explain to you exactly how it's installed as well as for history of working with such vehicles

Notice how he covered the IRR reading with his thumb when he measured the rear windows. That's because the rear windows come with 91.5% IRR from the factory. I've measured it myself with that same tool on a factory Tesla Model Y.

Hi! Did you also measure the two front windows without tint? To think that not putting any tint on the rear windows is a great idea because it already blocks heat is the wrong mindset. Your kids, dogs and or whatever you put back there will get cooked! The only thing that will help you reduce heat is window film, specially a high grade ceramic film. Thanks for watching 🫡

@@ScottRodriguez great! So based on those numbers you’re thinking tint isn’t needed? Do a btu reading on those back windows, they’re absorbing more heat than the clear two front windows due to the fact that they’re factory dye black.

@@HighEndDetail BTU measures how much solar energy is passing through the window into the car heating the surfaces of the interior of the vehicle. The higher the IRR, the less solar energy is passing through the window. That said, as the ceramic tint or in the Model Y’s case, the factory windows block solar heat (based on the measurements revealed) from passing through the window, the window itself will absorb and maintain heat energy. As the window warms up, the air in the vehicle will still gradually warm up via conductive heat transfer. Conductive heat transfer (air inside the vehicle that is heating up due to being in contact with the warm window) is an issue while vehicles are stationary. Once the vehicle is in motion, any heat being absorbed into the window will be cast off the vehicle as wind passes over the car. Long story short, the interior of a stationary vehicle left in direct sunlight is going to get hot over time regardless of how you choose to block the heat due to conductive heat.

@@HighEndDetail Great video. I’m trying to make sense of this, too. If they factory backseat windows have UVR~97, and IRR~91 does adding film to get to UVR~100 and IRR~98 really improve things all that much? How do the BTUs compare? Or is comparing BTUs even a fair comparison? I really appreciate your insight on this.

I’ve been trying to get an idea of what do do for my black model y! Thanks for this video! Wish you were I Kentucky.

Looks great!

20% - Thank You! I've been wanting to Tint just my front side windows to match the rears on my '21 MYP.

Great video

Nice job! What do you use if it’s a black interior?

I wish my Xpel shop was as competent as you guys. I asked to match it to the back and it looks like 50% now I gotta take it back and redo it.

Any tips on how to install the tint without removing the gasket?

Good information.

20% front and 45% rear on xpel xr + on model y.. will it shows a big difference on shades ? My mids complaining the rear get sunny during summer.. wanted 15% front but not sure how reality 15% looks being in CA.. is 20% vs 15% shows a big difference? My interior is black

Awesome video everyday i ride my car very like 100 f inside hope i could get a tint

How do you open the latch so window rolls back up?

In north carolina it 32% limit for all windows. Front (driver side, paseenger side, rear seat side and trunk door) What percentage should be used?) Any reaponse would be helpful. Thank you,

what % was the back trunk glass?

Very good video,

So cool

I had the front windows on my 2022 MYP tinted with XPEL XR PLUS a few weeks ago. There is a minimal gap between the edge of the film and the top edge of the window. I can see the tint film line. Again minimal (maybe the width of 1 or 2 credit cards put together) bit it’s there. The tinting facility said they don’t go to the exact edge of the window because on Teslas they have found that when they go to the edge they have encountered peeling through time. Is this accurate? Thank you

@W96NZ

Yes it's true, unfortunately on all vehicles if you put the film to the edge it would peel, so you leave a little gap. I try to shoot for one CC..

If your Tesla Y has the interior black, do you still recommend 15% in the front and 70% back?

What is the cost for all of this tint done on the car?

Very nice

Is $400 a fair price for side windows abs rear for Xpel XR film?

What is the IRR on the stock windows with the factory tint in the rear? You covered it with your thumb when you tested it in the video. I was excited to see the difference.

I see that the 'clear window' even shows 100 UV & 78 IR... does it mean that the 'clear window' even blocks 100% of uv & 78% of IR? I heard that only the roof window blocks UV...

45% over factory and 15% front matches almost perfect

Why did you tint from outside then inside on the front? I thought they just do the inside

Tint is always applied to the inside. When you see him laying it down on the outside, that's just to stretch and form it so that it's the right size and shape when it's transferred to the inside and won't require as much work to get laid down into place.

Lota new stuff, to me anyway. Thanks.

the best tint for tesla y is 15% in the front, 35% in the rear and back window, roof and windscreen is 70%. If your happy with the privacy stock window from tesla and don't want to tint it just want to match the front, just tint the front 20%.

Front VLT was 10% Rear VLT was 15% So the back side windows are 5% lighter than the front? Doing 35-45% in the rear would've been an actual match.

@HighEndDetail

2 жыл бұрын

yes and no. yes, the front windows are 10% but due to them being close to the windshield (lots of light come in) and taking in consideration that the seats being are white, 10% looks like 15%.

is it me or the video has another BGM track overlaying the main one? I had to turn off the sound cause it's very distracting

Why are you accounting for the white interior to change the tint when the back windows also have white interior? Because the variation is true for all windows, shouldn't it be ignored? If the 10% on the front is going to come up to 15%, isn't the 15% on the back going to go up to 20%? Seems like you should just match the windows, unless the interior were 2 different colors front and rear.

@PMitchell106

Жыл бұрын

The front seats are going to be more illuminated by the light coming in the windshield and reflecting it out the front windows, the back seats are going to be shaded from that light by the front seats, so if all were tinted the same, the back would appear darker from the outside. If the goal was for the windows to look the same from the driver's perspective looking out, they should try for the same effective VLT, if the goal is to make them *look* matched from the outside, then they'd want to be a touch darker in the front.

Fact: The FRONT WINDOW TINT is very dark for NIGHT DRIVING, especially for a lady driver/owner. And to see more clearly the ROAD, 80% - 90% are perfect for NIGHT time. How do I know? I was in the tint business for 3 decades, and I've seen people correlate the DARK tint to LESS HEAT, but that's NOT CORRECT, as whatever the COMPOSITION of the TINT ITSELF (especially ceramic technology), the HEAT REJECTIONS is the same with 90% to 10%, period. Have a great day to y'all!

In Virginia you get harassed with 15% even 20% on the front 🤦🏽‍♂️ Great job though

this is the first video I've seen of yours... and I gotta admit, that's pretty dodgy behaviour aye 🤣 Like, you didn't even defend your actions, so it was def done on purpose... but with no explanation of why.

Anyway, my point is it's pretty deceptive dude 🤔 How can anyone honestly trust anything you say after a stunt like that without any explaination about why you were covering the reading on the device?

I clicked dislike on your video. The reason is I was watching it with my 3 year old and that song you included was dropping the "F" bomb over and over and my 3 year old repeated that word. Your video, other than that was excellent.
