I've had hi-grade tint fade badly after 5 years. The trick is to find
a dealer that won't dick you around when it is time for a free
replacement. Will they do it during the weekend, like they did when
you paid for it, or do you have to rent a car during the week? Will
they stand behind their work on the removal and reinstall, or ruin the
defrost grid on your back window and refuse to fix it? (Look for a
disclaimer hidden in the original warranty papers they give you.) For
that matter, if you take them a car that looks brand new, can they
return it looking the same way?

Any decent grade tint will last a good while, but the dealer service is
important. Unfortunately, a business can trade hands a couple of times
in 5 years.
