I would like to completely black out the rear and side windows in my van.
Was hoping someone had a neat idea on how to do this?? I currently have dark
window tint, but at night, if your in there with the light on, you can see
in. Have tried gluing and double sided taping some window screens, that
works ok, until it gets cold..and then they just fall off...could you paint
it?? Seems like the paint would just peel off? Any unusual ideas?? Any help
would be appreciated...was hoping to find a window film that would block ALL
light..but no one seems to make one that I can find? HELP

Go to a tint shop and ask about tint films for limosenes.

It depends on your State laws too... In VA., if the glass is there you

have to be able to see through it, can't paint over it, have to remove glass
and replace w/sheetmetal. Don't know where you are, so I don't know if this
helps or not.

So just cut the freakin' things out and weld some sheet metal in their
place. The fact of the matter is, in many states, there are legal
limits to just how dark windows can be tinted.

AFAIK, windows to the rear of the driver's seat are optonal in all
cases. Take a look at any box van (UPS truck, commercial van, semi
tractor, etc.) and you'll see what I mean. However if there is no rear
window, you are required to have mirrors on both sides.
