Car window tinting

How dark
do you want to go?

Pick a car, a ute or a van, then drag the shade and see exactly what each level looks like — front and rear separately, with the legal limit for that class of vehicle marked.

Legal limit for front windows · VLT 35%
Sedan with untinted factory glass

Registered as a class MA passenger car, so the rear glass has the same 35% floor as the front.

Front & rear windows 35%
Legal on front side windows ✓
Rear windows 35%
Rear limit depends on your vehicle class

Presets set both windows — switch linking back on to use them.

A visual guide, not a measurement. NZ law: once film is on, front side windows must keep at least 35% total light transmission on every vehicle — and that figure includes your factory glass, which is rarely perfectly clear. Behind the driver it depends on one thing: a class MA passenger car keeps the same 35% floor, while anything else — a ute, a van, a light bus — has no minimum at all, provided the vehicle has mirrors on both sides. Windscreens take a top band only. Your rego says which class your vehicle is, and your branch measures the actual glass before recommending a shade.

Which film

Shade is the look. Heat is the film.

Darkness and heat rejection are two different things, and this is where most people are surprised: a light ZV90 stops more heat than a much darker cheap film. Every Zivent tier — ZV70, ZV80 and ZV90 — comes in this whole range of shades, so you pick the look and the film separately.

All three block 99.9% of UV at every shade and carry a lifetime warranty on the film. Fitted at eight branches; a sedan takes two to three hours.
