Was wondering what's your impression on the factory thermal glass ? I'm considering it on a build because some owners have had issues with aftermarket tint being scratched by the wiper strips on the doors. Do you feel like the car is quieter than a model with standard glass?

I haven't compared it to the standard glass, but it's extremely quiet and amazingly heat resistant. I was parked in the sun in 120 degree weather for at least 45 minutes and got back in the car. I didn't want to open the windows because it was still cooler inside the car than outside.

i have it on my Cayenne - don't know how it goes with tint but totally agree with Nicecar - my Cayenne is black on black and i can park all day in our sun and the thing is cool when i get in. works well and also gives this cool purple hue to the front window - anyway i ordered it because it has been great on the Cayenne.

have heard it presents problems with radar detectors and if you have those auto toll readers

I have it as well on my PTT. I did apply all around tint on top of it as well. Both definitely helps keep the car cool on a hot day.

Regarding the toll tag, there's a cut out on the windshield, by the top console is to place it there and the factory tint won't interfere it. That's where you can place the radar detector as well.
