    I used SD Tint (University Ave) for my Tundra, no complaints, and decent prices.

    Then I used SD Motorsports (Sorrento Valley)for my taco and sonata, also no complaints, decent prices.

    Are you tinting for looks, or does adding tint to factory tinted windows make a real difference (heat/temperature)....
    If so, do you add more than just lowest shade to factory tinted windows
