Window Tinting & Security FAQ

Front side windows must allow 70% or more light through. Rear windows and back windshield have no restrictions. We install tint that meets Ontario regulations.

Most vehicles are completed in 2-4 hours. Larger SUVs or vehicles with complex curves may take longer.

Wait 3-5 days before rolling down windows. Clean with soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid ammonia-based glass cleaners.

We use Solar Gard film exclusively. Ceramic options come with lifetime warranty. Carbon and dyed films also available.

No. Proper installation does not affect your factory warranty. We integrate with your vehicle's existing systems.

Basic remotes work up to 1/4 mile. SmartStart Pro systems use your phone and work anywhere with cell service.

Remote starter installation typically takes a few hours. We test everything before you leave.

An immobilizer prevents your car from starting without the correct signal. It cuts power to ignition and fuel systems.

Yes. Immobilizers add a layer of protection that relay devices cannot bypass. The car will not start even if keys are cloned.

A dashcam is a smart investment if you want clear video evidence in case of an accident, hit-and-run, parking lot damage, or insurance disputes. Many drivers install one for peace of mind, especially in busy city traffic. It can help document exactly what happened when the other side tells a different story.

A front-and-rear dashcam setup gives the best balance of coverage and value. The front camera records the road ahead, while the rear camera captures what happens behind you, which is especially useful in rear-end collisions and parking incidents. Some drivers also choose 360-degree options for added protection.

Yes, professional dashcam installation can be done with clean, hidden wiring so the camera looks factory-installed. This keeps the dashboard and windshield area uncluttered and helps the setup look polished. Hidden wiring also reduces the chance of cables getting damaged over time.

Yes, if the system is set up with parking mode and the proper power source. Parking mode lets the dashcam monitor your vehicle while it is off, which is helpful for theft, vandalism, and parking lot damage. Proper setup ensures the camera doesn't drain the battery.

A good dashcam can capture plates clearly in many situations, but image quality depends on camera resolution, lens quality, lighting, and vehicle speed. Higher-quality cameras do better at night and in fast-moving traffic. Placement and installation matter just as much as the camera itself.

Dashcams should use a high-endurance memory card designed for constant recording and rewriting. Regular SD cards can wear out faster because dashcams loop-record continuously. Using the right card helps reduce corruption and missing footage.

This usually happens because of power issues, overheating, bad memory cards, or outdated firmware. First, check the card, power source, and heat exposure. If the problem persists, contact us for professional diagnosis.

A hardwired dashcam is usually the better option if you want a cleaner look and access to parking mode. It also avoids dangling cables and provides a more permanent, professional setup. Plug-in installs are easier but look less polished and may not support all features.

Yes, dashcam footage can be extremely helpful when filing insurance claims after an accident, hit-and-run, or theft. It gives you time-stamped visual evidence of what happened, which can speed up the claims process and reduce disputes.

Yes, professional installation gives you a cleaner look, better wire management, and a setup that works properly from day one. It reduces the chance of loose cables, bad power connections, or cameras mounted incorrectly. For drivers who want a reliable, discreet result, professional installation is worth it.
