Cool or Tacky ?

Ignore his camera work which is awful, but you get the gist. I am looking at this stuff for my house, and wasnt really surprised to see that it had made it onto cars. I guess the impressive thing with this install is that he can still wind his windows up/down - Thats gotta be some tricky wiring.

I kinda like it, but dont think it would suit the 8.....

so I presume this is a security feature? but not applied to the windscreen, so everyone can still see in anyway.....?! You've lost me...

Does it use polarization to achieve the effect?

It's also available in different colours which could match your car colour.

I'm not too sure about using it on house though :Confused:. It may work but would it need an inverter?

On a 'Ronin' S8? - cool.

On a tarted up Saxo? - uncool.
