Any suggestions for tinting in the NYC area?

I am looking for a reasonable and professional tinting place in the NYC area. Any specific places/thoughts? I certainly don't want the "cheapest" place but if they are the cheapest and still very good that's okay too.

I mostly want to get the heat and light out of the car, especially the side back windows where my kid gets hit by the sun. I have noticed the MINI tends towards heating up quickly with almost any amount of sun. Maybe charcoal as dark as NY state allows all around (nothing on the front) and a bit darker on the sun roof. I want dark enough to make it worth the cost and effort but I certainly don't like the idea of it being so dark that it decreases visibility in any way. That's not really a problem here in NY though I guess as the law allows only 70% I believe with the rear window being the exception (any darkness I think).

But really, 70% barely seems worth even doing it no?

Btw, Jersey, West Chester, and LI are fine for me as well. Thanks!
