Jazz having a large front screen, the cost will be on the higher side - even for just the front. If you want CR70 for all windows, I guess you are looking at at least 15k.

Note - I am not aware of exact prices of 3M sun film

I got the front windscreen only done.

For all glasses, that would go up to above 20k.
One budget friendly option would be cr70 on front glass, and re70 on all others.
But if you ask for my opinion, you don't need it on all glasses. On other glasses you can use magnetic shades, and the temperature becomes much more manageable very easily. That's the route i opted personally.
I use magnetic shades on the rear glasses.

I got them off of Amazon.

Autopearl Premium Quality Zipper Magnetic Sun Shades Car Curtain For - Honda New Jazz - Set Of 4 Pcs https://www.amazon.in/dp/B019C2ZAUG/..._NTdPCbHN0ZGBD

The magnets are decently strong, and the zipper opens up sufficient enough to allow using windows at parking lots and toll booths. Please note it didn't open up 100%, only able 50% diagonally.

Re: Front windscreen sunfilm?

Does anyone have good recommendations for Garware sun film installers in Hyderabad? Also does anyone have experience with the 3M center near Nanakramguda circle (near ring road)?

Re: Front windscreen sunfilm?

I won't use magnetic shades due to reduced visibility.

Re: Front windscreen sunfilm?

I got my Gen-1 i20 windscreen and side windows tinted with 3m CR70 from 3m outlet. It costed my approx 18,000 for the same. I have to say it did make a lot of difference during daytime driving. On the negative side, it does leave a greenish tint when viewed under sunlight.

Re: Front windscreen sunfilm?

I am thinking to go for Garware ice cool grey as it has 79% visibility so will be barely visible than the 70% that most other companies have. Is it worth going for it to help improve ac performance in my Grand i10? I will install it on all windows except front windscreen. Will not installing on front windscreen make it useless?

Did you get a chance to check the visibility at night? Does it cancel oncoming traffic lights (specially the ones using high beam instead of dipper).

The Front & rear windshields do let in a lot of heat. It does help to get film on these two. And having it on front windshield also helps reducing glare in bright conditions (afternoon esp).

Can you share some daylight pictures? And what's the police attention like in Gurgaon and Delhi?

Cops are not lookin into sunfilms as of now but they’ll definitely ramp up checks as heat increases. After 9 years, bit the bullet and got it installed because i20 1.2 seriously lacks A/C cooling due to small capacity compressor. I had no option but to get the film installed.
You can compare it to Baleno which have UV blocking side glass. I’ll post some pictures soon.

Have CR70 on mine. It doesn't cancel the high beam, but makes it a little easier on the eyes. The nasty ones will still cause momentary blindness.

CR-70 does leave a greenish tint on the window which will be more pronounced on cars with light shade paint.

Looks great! And even darker with the nets

Black cars do need sunfilms
