Model 3 Window Tint for Los Alamitos Owners

Los Alamitos Model 3 owners have their Tesla window tint done at Tesla Tint LA by Audio MotorSports, 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A in Carson, about 11.2 miles from Los Alamitos. The Model 3 leads here because its rear window is the toughest glass in the lineup to tint cleanly; we shrink one sheet of ceramic film to it, leave the cameras open, and quote the job by model.

Tesla work for Los Alamitos drivers

Model 3 window tint

The back glass curves sharply in two directions. A single sheet of ceramic film is heat-shrunk on the outside of the glass until it sits flat, then installed inside with no seam. The frameless door glass is cut so the edge hides under the seal when the window drops.

Model Y, Model S, Model X and Cybertruck

The Y is a taller version of the same job, the S and X need more shaping, and the Cybertruck is flat panes cut on a board. Each has its own quote by model.

Ceramic film with no metal

The phone key, the cell signal and the cameras all work as they did before.

Windshield strip

A strip across the top of the windshield for glare; the factory roof glass is already dark, so the film goes on the side and rear glass.

Audio MotorSports also handles dash camera, GPS tracker, car alarm, remote start and stereo installation in the same bay.

    Questions

    Los Alamitos questions we hear

    Why is the Model 3 rear window such a test for a tint shop?

    The curve. It bends front to back and side to side at the same time, and a flat sheet of film has to be shrunk with heat until it follows every bit of it. A shop that rushes will split it into strips. Done as one piece, it looks like factory glass; that takes practice.

    Should a Los Alamitos owner wait at the shop or drop the Model 3 off?

    Either works. The trip is short enough that many owners wait, and a Model 3 is usually done the same day. If you are adding a dash camera, drop it off in the morning and pick it up later. We will tell you which makes more sense when you book.

    Does ceramic film affect the Model 3 cameras or the phone key?

    No. The film is non-metallic, so signals for the phone key, Bluetooth and cellular pass through the glass. The windshield camera housing is left uncovered, and the pillar cameras are not on tinted glass. Autopilot sees what it always saw.

    What is the legal front window shade on a Model 3 in California?

    The front doors must pass 70% of visible light, so they stay light. Ceramic film at that shade still cuts most of the infrared heat, so the front seats get cooler without a dark look. The rear doors and back glass have no limit and can go dark.

    How long before I can use the rear defroster and roll the windows down?

    Give it a few days. The film cures against the glass during that time, so keep the windows up and the rear defroster off. After that, everything is normal. Clean the film with an ammonia-free cleaner and a soft cloth, and it will stay clear for years.
