hi, just wondering how much this should cost? or how many hours of labour this is?

never had tinting done so any help is appreciated
 
Lamin-x do kits for the headlights and rear light clusters. They're not cheap but vey good quality.
 
Ok is it easy enough to do myself? Would I have to get the lights out or could I do it while they are attached as they are on the car?
 
I paid for tinting front and rear lights 80 pounds in charlton south east london

if you go the Lamin-x route, the pieces are cut to size and it is very simple to fit - not very different to doing a phone screen cover.

Rears (on the pre-facelift) need you to remove the "french fry" from each side, these are easily removed with a piece of nylon thread or thin plastic card, and then are fixed back in the same way with a piece of double-sided tape
 
I did all the lights on my X1 for about £15.

Buy a roll off eBay and do it yourself. Wet application makes it incredibly simple and the only other tool you need is a good craft knife
 
how long did it take you? you got the link for the guy you bought it off? there seems to be only one seller in the UK on ebay?
