I hope I stated the questions in such a way that the results will be meaningful. I'm hoping that the results will help me decide how to deal with my back window. As far as I know, the industry doesn't have any gradient fade-to-clear type film. If they did, it would be perfect for the rear window. Otherwise maybe I will use vertical strips of various shades. This way I won't darken the view through the quarter panel windows too much.

I was just wondering if a cross reference had ever been established?

I tried gently applying the brake and found that the sound stopped, so I replaced all my pads with supposed noiseless pads that are supposed to be extremely squeek free. Well my car was squeekless for about two days, but now it has returned with a vengeance!!! When cold, my brakes squeeled when applying the braking as well, and now they squeel even worse! Its an ear pearcing, gut wrenching, banshee squeel that makes me wince each time I hear it. Fortunately they only do this for the first four or five times that I brake, then they stop. So I have new pads and my calipers look great. Its got to be my discs... right? Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.
