Where to get tint
I need to find out where to get tint, I am going to be tinting my 5th wheels windows and that consists of about 3 large picture windows and about 7 or 8 smaller windows so I would need to get a larger amount. Where would a tint shop get there's from? Because I am thinking that would be a better place to go since I could get it at what the shop would pay.

Well, I cant speak to where the tint shop gets their tint (they probably wont either) but you can get some pretty good tint at any auto parts store or even walmart if you want to attempt the install yourself. IIRC walmart even sells a type of tint that doesn't use any adhesive but attaches by a sort of static cling effect. That type of tint would probably be a good idea for a first time DIY (even if its just for practice) since it would be very forgiving of any noob mistakes...
Also even if you find their source you wont be getting it at what the tint shop would pay. The tint shop gets preferential pricing because they buy lots of it and they buy it consistently....

My bad misread it I did my truck windows with walmart tint been on for two years no purple color or fading. Just take your time trim the tint on the outside window to get your window shape. Its trial and error as a beginner I've been tinting my own windows for four years now and still learning new things.

The film doesn't cost them much, most of the price is the labor of making custom cuts, fitting the film on rounded/bubbled windows, behind door panels, etc.
Installing film on bigger, flat windows in an open space is going to be quick and easy.
If nothing else, ask them about buying film.

Well I don't know about getting them to look at it, because its a full day ordeal to take it there. But that's why I'm thinking about getting my buddy to do it, because all the windows are flat and easily accessible. Since there single pane windows, the most I would have to do is pop the screen off.
