I love your W-123's colors ! .

You don't need that dark tint , in fact the best UV blocking is from tint only slightly darker than the stock EZ-EYE glass....

'course if you like the Ghetto look and police eyballing you , go for it .

Well Dandy...your 123 must be different thatn mine. My AC decal under the hood says it takes 2.9 pounds of refrigerant. Lets just call it 3 pounds.

Lets go back to simple Elementary math....3 pounds X 16 ounces= 48 OZ needed. Since my R-12 cans are 12 OZ each....48 divide by 12 = 4...as in 4 cans.

Not to bag but my Indy is one of my good friends. He has to make a living (hence I paid $300) I gotta be cool hence I live in H-town!!!

Tinted windows are great, but they take some getting used to. The biggest problem is you get in the habit of staring at people at stoplights. It is ok in the wagon, but the habit transfers to the truck without tint!
