Replacement Windows

Am considering replacing windows and looking for experiences with different tints available for Motion Windows. Am thinking the solar cool bronze, anyone have this?

I do not remember the name of the tint, but I did have one of their darker bronze tints they called solar reflective and it was wonderful.    I had it in a previous Monaco Signature.  The windows mechanisms were perfect.  The tint gave us complete privacy during the day time with no shades.  At night it was like living in a lit fishbowl, and so we needed to close the shades always at night.  I loved them.

We have their windows now in my current coach, the window mechanisms are perfect, no complaints, I do prefer the earlier rvs window tint, which was darker.  With that said, I am so pleased the previous owner put  these window throughout.

When Xtreme P&G painted our coach in 2012, we had the OEM windows replaced with Motion Windows Solar Cool Bronze (Mirrored). Love the extra level of privacy the mirrored finish adds and really like the looks. Last winter the vertical bar on one of the passenger side windows came off. Plus, the vertical bar on the driver's window has always been loose and rattled from day one.

Don't know the name of the tint on our motion windows, but you can't see in from outside unless its dark and the lights are on inside.  Great windows.

Thanks for the responses, sounds like the solar cool bronze will be a good choice for the glass. Am planning to replace all but the drivers window and door glass. Factory needs about 8 weeks to build the windows so looks like I will get to enjoy the cool night temperatures of Oregon a while longer.
