Can you do just a drop-in kinda deal, or do you need an appointment?

Well, tint works may be on the pricey tip - they're quoting $350 for all windows on the wagon (fronts/rears). I'll see what Eclipse says too.

While you're at it ask how much for just the two rear passenger windows on a sedan.

Eclipse did my wagon for somewhere near $200 back in '02.

Ok. Tint Works quoted me $350 for all the windows on the wagon and Eclipse just quoted me $290 so....yeah.

Looks like I'll be going to Eclipse on 7/23

What might the differences be in the types of tint they use though?

Dye vs. Metallic vs. Ceramic.
Or warranty/garantee
Some films are more scratch resistant than others too.

Just remember that metallic tint and radar detectors don't work well together.

The metal flakes are used to reflect heat not to make the tint shine or give it a mirror finish. You can get some jet black tint that has such a high metal content that your radar detector will be useless...
