What Model S owners ask about most at our North Hollywood studio.
The Model S is a liftback, so the Rear Window is a large, sloped piece of glass in the hatch. It is included in the $560 / $700 price together with every side window, including the small quarter windows.
A nearly clear nano-ceramic windshield film cuts infrared heat without changing the look: $299 in XR Black, $399 in XR Plus. California allows a non-reflective strip on the top 4 inches; ask us about clear windshield film.
If your Model S has a glass roof, roof film comes in any shade, from nearly clear to dark: $729 in XR Black or $899 in XR Plus. See our glass roof guide.
Front side windows must let at least 70% of light through. Rear side windows and the Rear Window can be any darkness, since the Model S has both side mirrors. See California tint laws.
Both are nano-ceramic with 99% UV protection and no metal, so phone, GPS and key signals work normally. XR Plus rejects up to 96% of infrared heat against 85% for XR Black, for $140 more on sides and Rear Window. Compare in XR Black vs XR Plus.
Installing film does not void the Tesla warranty. Tesla lists Autograff on its website as an XPEL installer, and every Model S is tinted by XPEL-certified installers. Pairing tint with paint protection? See Tesla PPF: Model S Full Front from $2,500, Full Body from $6,000.
