Ceramic film for cabin heat
The doors and one-piece rear glass on a Model 3 or Model Y let a lot of heat through, and a ceramic film cut for those panels knocks the cabin temperature down without changing the look from outside.

Tesla Window Tint for Lomita: Beat the Cabin Heat
Tesla Tint LA is the Tesla window tint side of Audio MotorSports at 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A in Carson, about 3.7 miles from Lomita. Lomita owners mostly come in because the cabin turns into an oven; ceramic film on the doors and rear glass is the fix, hand-cut on a glass board and quoted by model at the shop. The factory roof glass is already dark.

What Lomita Tesla owners drive in for
Side and rear Tesla window tint
Film is cut on a glass board, never on your glass, so the defroster lines and the edge of the gasket stay untouched while the film sits right to the seal.
Front windows at the legal shade
The two front windows stay at the California legal level and still cut glare, which matters on a bright afternoon coming down toward the harbor.
Everything else the shop does
Car audio, car alarm installation, dash cameras and GPS tracking happen in the same Carson bay, so a second job can ride along on the same appointment.
Getting here from Lomita
Lomita to the shop is roughly 3.7 miles, about a 7 to 9 minute drive outside rush hour. Open Monday through Saturday 9:30 to 6:00, closed Sunday. Book a time first, then either leave the car and come back or wait at the shop while the film goes on. Plenty of Lomita drivers wait inside; there is seating, a TV with Netflix, free Wi-Fi and a restroom, and if you want to stretch your legs a mall, coffee shops and restaurants are a short walk away. Lomita customers of every background are welcome, and the shop is LGBTQ-friendly. Coming from Lomita, take whichever is moving: the shop is right off the 110 and easy from the 405 and the 710. Lomita customers include port and refinery workers on shift schedules, so early drop-offs are normal here.
Prices

Questions
Lomita questions we hear
Does Tesla window tint actually make the cabin cooler?
Yes. The doors and rear glass admit a large share of the heat on a sunny afternoon, and a ceramic film cut for them rejects much of it. The factory roof glass is already dark. The look from outside barely changes, and the cabin stops feeling like a greenhouse while parked.
Why is Tesla window tint quoted by model instead of one flat price?
Every Tesla has a different glass shape. The Model X has those big curved front panes, the Model Y has a one-piece rear glass, and the Cybertruck is its own pattern. Nick looks at the actual car and quotes by model at the shop so the number matches the glass in front of him.
Is it worth the short drive from Lomita for Tesla tint?
It is a 7 to 9 minute hop, and the work is done by a shop that tints Teslas every week. People drive from well over 100 miles away for the same job, so a Lomita owner gets the same careful install with almost no time spent on the road.
Will ceramic tint interfere with the cameras or the key card reader?
No. Ceramic film is not metallic, so it does not block radio signals, the phone key, or the key card reader on the B-pillar. Camera windows and sensor areas are left clear, and the electronics around the rear glass get prep before any film goes down on that panel.
How long does a full Tesla tint job take, and can I wait for it?
Plan on a few hours for sides and rear, a bit less for fronts only. You are welcome to wait at the shop, or drop the car and pick it up later the same day. Book ahead so the bay is ready when you arrive from Lomita.
