Angry No Rear Climate Privacy Option

Got good deal on 2007 new Black on Black X5 3.01s.off dealer lot. Premium package and ipod adapter , park distance control and 3rd row seats. But does not have Rear Climate Privacy option which i have in 2003 . Now vechicle looks like a fish bowl . Made big mistake and want to trade in with only 200 miles. Probally will have to keep this one for a while. still own 2003 X5

I ordered my X5 thinking for the factory tint windows. After receiving the car, I felt it was way too light and ended up having to tint it anyways. Do a search for window tint and you will find some other threads on the topic.

Back window is no problem it is done all the time. As a matter of fact you are probably further ahead than the rest of us with factory tint, at least you can be assured of even tinting all the way around. It is difficult to match tint with the factory option.

Why would you get rid of the E70 just because it does not have factory tint? This is my 2nd X5 and both of them I have factory tint but I still tint all the windows. Besides, you can't even tell the difference between factory and aftermarket tints.

Thanks, do you know what tint on back windowcame from factory? I have premium package but no rear climate control package. Does the back window already have privacy glass. Thank You .
