Excellent, so it is possible? Will get around to getting a Touran console but the amount if grief having to remove the bulkhead made it a very unappealing job.

there are some amazing projects on this thread ... very interesting and very impressive :D

am afraid that this is nothing so bold, but will none-the-less be very useful for stealth camping and hopefully will provide increased privacy & increased security, because it is very much harder to see in (even with the remaining windows 'only' tinted).

installed some van-x curtains in my caddy maxi life to the rear side windows (eg not the sliding doors nor the tailgate) :

curtains open, tied-back (this is looking out through tinted window) :

curtains closed :

increased reflectivity :
