Find the right film for you

Answer a few short questions for a film suggestion and what to read next.

The film finder needs JavaScript. Call 0924.402.402 for advice.

Preview the tint on each window

Set the light transmission for the windshield, side and rear windows and see the cabin from inside and outside.

This simulator needs JavaScript. See the code tables on each product series page.

Work out total light transmission after tinting

Factory glass is already tinted. Enter the glass and film transmission to estimate the result once fitted.

Total transmission = glass × film ÷ 100. For example, 80% glass with 35% film gives about 28%.

Estimate cabin temperature and air conditioning

How much cooler film keeps a car parked in the sun, what that difference means, and how much it spares the air conditioning. Results are estimated ranges, with sources.

The estimator needs JavaScript. In one NREL test, reflective film on every window of a minivan cut the parked cabin air temperature by 4.6°C.

Try film on your home windows

Pick the sun direction and film type to see how the room changes, with a note on glass cracking risk.

Questions about these tools

How accurate are the previews?

The previews are drawn illustrations; real colour depends on your glass, the light and your screen. The VLT figure is an estimate from multiplying glass by film, so measure with a meter after installation to be sure.

Does following the tools keep me within the law?

The tools do not judge legality. Check the regulations that apply to you before choosing film for the windshield and front side windows.

Do the tools store my information?

No. Every calculation runs in your browser, nothing is sent anywhere and nothing is saved.

Why does the film finder not name a specific film code?

The film finder suggests the type of film that fits your needs. To choose an exact code by its specifications, contact the VEGO team.

What data is the cabin temperature estimate based on?

It rests on parked-car measurements published by NREL in the United States and on the TSER in film makers’ public data sheets. The result is an estimated range for a car parked in the midday sun, not a measurement of your car.

Why does the tool not give an exact fuel saving?

The saving depends on the car’s glass, humidity, trip length and how the A/C is used. The tool shows only a percentage range while the A/C is on, following relationships NREL published, and turns it into money from the cost you enter.
