I've looked at a few places in the city there arel; Car Pretty Salon, Shade of Grey Tinting (priced at $170-$180). Out of the city: there are All Seasons Tinting & Sun Sational Glass Tint asking for $225 - $235.
My uncle had his Honda Fit windows tinting at Car Pretty Salon last month and they do look good. However, online reviews said the customer service is SUCKs. Both Car Pretty Salon and Shade of Grey Tinting uses the LLumina tint film. It look and sound like these two were once worked together and then they split-up.

I'm so afraid of the low price that the work will F*ck our Benz. But also I can't justify for $200 plus for similar tint (SunGard vs. LLumina tint film). Not sure which is best? Let me know if you find a good and reputatable shop.

I googled and saw a few recommendations for Shades of Gray at Feasterville. Anyone tried them? They use LLumar film. Just sent them an email asking for price.

@ Klingon - I had my done this passed Friday. I'm happy with the price (after $10 coupon off) at Car Pretty Salon on Bustleton Ave.

My is Silver with black interior so I got 35% all around. It look VERY DARK when I tried 20% static cling prior to the actual tinting film. I lived in the sub and I don't want attention from the police.

I've known the owners for for close to 10 years. They tinted my c230k about 4.5 years ago and are going to replace the windows (scratched) and the rear window (started bubbling this summer). They are going to do my c300 whenever I get around to getting there.

You are correct - PA State law is 70%. http://tintlaws.com/
I got my done at 35% all around to be safe. Check out Car Pretty, I got it for ~$180 all after tax and 3% credit surcharges.
