Best way to disable power windows after window tint?

Pulling a particular fuse or relay? Just curious if someone has a “best” option or I’ll dig into the relay box myself later. I just had ceramic tint done and picked it up last night. The dry time is much longer for ceramic I’m told. 10 days recommended instead of 2-3 days. Because of that I’m concerned I’ll forget.

 

Just put some tape over the switches.

 

I have tape over them now but, seems painters tape I could push through if I’m not thinking or on auto pilot.

 

.....in that case, add armed mouse trap. That will remind you!

 

That would do it!

 

Engine compartment fuse box: #7 & #8.

 

I had ceramic done and it was fine in 2 days.

window lock or don’t drive, if you have another vehicle

 

Why not just use the window lock button?

 

That doesn’t lock the drivers side, correct? Or does it lock them all? I’m more worried I’ll forget, not the passengers and I did lock those. I assume the master switch still works.

 

We have other vehicles. It’ll probably just be off limits for the most part. I had pulled the main window relay on my wife’s car in the past so that seems like the way to go.

 

well shit, now I gotta go test it because I’m not sure.

 

LOL, that is correct, window lock only locks the passenger side and back windows not the driver side...

 

Had ceramic done Wednesday. Not touching until I'm off Friday. But did slap in tuf skinz today.

 

Yep, unless you add Autoloc modules like I did, then the lock doesn't work on any of them.

 

My ceramic 35% I waited about a week and the guy put neon green tape over the switches

 

I just taped a piece of cardboard over the switches when I had mine done

 

I don't wanna be "that guy", but this is probably the best way to go. Pulling a fuse or really disabling them could be a potential safety issue....ya never know.

 

When my tint was done they had a piece of hard plastic taped over the buttons with the date of installation on it. Tape a piece of cardboard or plastic over the switches so you can't hit them, but when it's time you just pull up the tape and call it a day.

 

10 days? Mine was good to go in 3.

 

My 13 yo peeled the tape off to roll the passenger window down ~6 hours post-tint!

 

Tape over the switch or pull the fuse.

 

LOL not true! The adhesive on ceramic film is really no different than a standard dyed film.

Couple of days and you'll be fine. Honestly the way I install, and most others, you can roll them down in an hour and be fine. (although I never recommend this to customers)
