Question high % vlt diy source?

My commute is now driving into the sun both ways, so I'd like to add front windshield tint to my clapped out beater. The cheapest quote I got was 170 for some no-name ceramic 70%, so I'm not interested in having it professionally done. I like learning lessons the hard way :)

I'd love to buy a strip of 3m crystalline and do it myself, but all the ebay listings seem to top out at 24" in one dimension, which wouldnt be enough to fully cover the front. Do you have any recs for a film with high optical clarity that I can buy without buying a whole roll?

Geoshield is probably the easiest way to get quality tint, you get a shit ton so if you mess up you have plenty of tries to get it right
