Tarmac_Terrorist Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Is this a fancy name for the heavily tinted rear & back windows or is it something different? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_B Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Depends. Audi have "privacy glass", which is tinted rear windows (B pillar backwards) and some models (A8 and perhaps A6, not sure about B8 A4/5) can also have UV-reflective glass. On A8s, this is usually a UV-reflective version of the transparent film between the dual panes of glass. It also reflects mobile phone signals pretty well, and GPS signals almost entirely, so if you have it you need a full-blown car kit and built-in NAV or a re-radiating antenna for GPS signals.

garcon magnifique Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Given we're in the BMW forums I'm guessing it relates to what is listed in the BMW options as "sun protection glass". As far as I know, that is basically no more nor less than "privacy glass" in VAG-speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac_Terrorist Posted May 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Thanks guys. Can't be doing with blocked phone & nav signals so was hoping it would only be the tinted 'drug dealer' rear windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
