Can anyone recommend a reasonable place in the South/Central area that installs quality UV Tint?

Tint Nation does 3M and Llumar ceramic films
Tech Motive does Xpel Prime ceramic

All 3 are very good and priced to match.

I have cheapo tint on one car, sun burns you through that. You feel your skin start to heat up almost as if i send down the glass. Leather burns my a55 when in the sun for a few hours.
I have 3M in another car. Nothing, nada just mild heat through it. Leather is warm but usable after a few hrs sun.

Both cars have black OEM leather (leatherish?) interiors. Both cars interiors heat up when left in the sun, however the 3M vehicle cools out after a short period with the glass down. The other remains scorching hot (dash, doors, seats etc) and usually have to sit on a towel or something if left in the sun.

Cheap tint $300
3M $1600

Worth it to me.
