Hi Patti, I had my windows tinted about two years ago in a shop in
Oceanside, CA, for about $300. They did a fine job. I can't recall the
name of the shop! I posted details here.

Can someone remind me of the google search syntax

(keywords site:www.somethingsomething.something)

needed to search the archives?

I'll try to track down the info.
