Need Advice Window Tinting Rear Hatch
I drive my 87 951 as a daily driver and do use a front window cover as I have to park it in the sun at work, I have been trying to come up with some method of covering the rear hatch window to keep the sun-heat damage to a minimum,
I was thinking of some cover like the BMWs use but found no after product , Now thinking about a darker tint, any ideas would be appreciated
nice interior and want to keep it looking good
best wishes

Tinting is a good idea, BUT DON"T GO CHEAP ON IT!!. The PO had my rear glass tinted, it was all bubbly (cheap tint, sh*tty job). I paid someone to get it off, they had to scratch off the defrost. Then I tried to have someone retint it, it's since been tried about 3-4 times, no one can get it right. Right it's the only windows not tinted. They (tinters) have to split the back section into a bunch of smaller pieces because of the size of it. If you can find someone who has maybe done a 944 before, then go for it. BTW, a lot of people I talked to wouldn't even touch my car, one guy actually said "F*ck Porsches", and promptly hung up on me!!
