tint or not tint

Living in South Florida I need more AC in my CL. The AC is working fine but almost always on the highest blower when the sun is out.

I had 2 MB's tinted before. No problems with the SL but the E had lines on the tint from the window going up & down.

Anyone else had their windows tinted? Any problems?

Joe - I had a 2000 S430 with tinted windows and the lines were horrendous. So bad in fact that I took the car to my body shop and had the door panels removed so that all of the interior "imperfections" could be removed and straigtened. After that I had the windows redone and never had any lines again in the tint. Incidentally, I had a 2004 S500 with tinited windows and never had one line or scratch, so somewhere over the years MB must have cleaned up the panels. Interestingly, for some reason I don't feel or see the need to tint the windows on my new CL. Maybe they have changed the glass and the factory tint?
