I tinted my pano roof and boy you don't know what your missing. I strongly recommend it. It's not as bright and blinding in the car and I personally feel it's a bit cooler.
But it that is my 2 cents everyone is different and I would rather not get into a debate with anyone. I'm just providing my point of few and real world experience
Thanks.
I agree that this is a personal preference issue that depends on where you live and what your objectives are when buying a panoramic roof.
The following remarks are not directed at Kenne74, I fully respect his decision for his situation. These remarks are directed to those still on the fence.
It should be pointed out that the panoramic roof already blocks 98% of visible light without additional tinting. So if you are an owner that values the functionality of being able to see out through the roof, then you should be careful on what type of tint, if any, to add to the panoramic roof. There is no question that you can add additional tint to further reduce the light entering the car, but is that really what you want with a
panoramic roof?
In my opinion in very warm climates, where you have occasion to frequently leave your car out in the sun, it may be useful to add additional solar blocking, but if you still want a
panoramic roof that you can see out of, it might make sense to buy a high-end film that has the minimum amount of tinting, but still provides additional blocking of solar energy. For example, 3M's top rated tint is Cystalline and you can get Cystalline 90. This transmits 86% of visible light and blocks an additional 34% of total solar energy.
If you feel you need to further block the solar heat load by using dark tints to block more visible light, then perhaps a panoramic roof is not a practical feature to buy in your situation. You would be incurring the cost of the panoramic roof option, spending additional money on adding tint and essentially the only thing you would have purchased is a moon roof opening, because most of the panoramic functionality would have been removed.
