I had my Pathfinder done for 75 QR at one of the local car parts stores, it's been a year and it is still like original. None of the front and the rear windows can be tinted. Omly the back side windows. Regular cab pick ups cannot not have any tint.

Location of shop was

corner of Al Matar Al Qadeem & Jaber Bin Hayyan St. south of LuLu's Hyper Mkt.

you are only allowed to tint your glass to the approved %. And to do that - you need the approvals first. Or else as the rest of the posters have pointed out - you can get into trouble.

Plus - you can only tint your rear windows. :-(

down salwa road from Ramada Junction .... pass Qatar Decoration roundabout ... pass the wholesale roundabout ... and you pass this roundabout (no idea what it is call, but if you turn right you will go towards Beverly Hills Garden compound)... then about 200 metres you take the right turn... you should be able to see Johnson sign on the left side in there.

I advice you to shop around the prices first ... there are few more tinting place next door to Johnson, one of them is V-kool. Maybe you can comparing prices before you decide.

I did mine without asking the police clearance ... the guy in Johnson said in certain percentage of blackout you dont need a police clearance. Then few months later i saw a thread in QL saying that (i think this thread might be by Rock The Casbah) he did inspection and the police just ripped his window filmed saying that he have no police clearance. His argument he being told that for his car's percentage blackout he dont need a police clearance. But then it is too late ... his window film worth QR 2000 plus already damage.

After i read that i ran to the traffic police and did the police clearance. I paid the runner QR 50 doing the service ... (i am sure he ripped me off :D ), and plus QR 24 for the actual fee of the permit.

I will have to do the inspection for my car on this coming October ... finger cross the police not ripping off my window film.

Here if you want the contact number the runner i used, his name is Hissam and his number is 5421225.

Johnson charged my car QR 1500 for Hyundai Matrix, and he want QR 1800 for my husband Hyundai SantaFe. In the end we only did mine ...

are you serious about theclearance from trafic police. i am assuming that the companies who do the tinting woul dknow the maximum allowed by law.
