    Quick question for folks who have tinted there windows and have done a "banner" on the windshield...

    I had my windows done and top banner strip installed on the windshield. I noticed that the bottom edge of the banner was even with the "dots" on the windshield, by the rearview mirror, on the passenger side, but 1/4 higher on the drivers side. I am OCD enough that I had them remove it. We measured everything and sure enough, from inside the truck with a tape, the bottom edge of the factory "dots" are about a 1/4" different from side to side... ~5.25" vs ~5.5"
    They are going to try and find a happy medium without it looking funky from the outside front on view, and even on the inside... but anyone else notice this, and what was the solution?

    Mine is even, can't discern that it isn't, looks perfect and works even better now that UV action is hitting my legs...

    Mine is not perfect either. I took mine to the guy who has done like 10 vehicles for me. He told me it was difficult and would redo it if I wanted. After about a week, I don't eve really think about it anymore honestly. But my dude who is a very experienced guy said for whatever reason, this one was a bit difficult.

    yea, heard the same... the balance is it looking even on the inside, AND the outside... do you have a pic you can share of how your aligned to the left and right of mirror (vertically)?

    When I get off work in a few hours, I can post one. Do not have service on my phone here so will have to wait until then.
