Tint Shop suggestions in Bay Area

I just finished my car-pc and realized that my gps mouse and wi-fi are just way too noticable on the rear speaker deck. My best option seems to be to do a medium-dark tint. My issue is that the only tint shops I know in the area are those crappy "3 window $79 specials places" in San Francisco's Mission district. Any suggestions for tint shops in the area and also tint brands?

Sidney did a great job on my tint. Tints over the dot matrix on the back window. A little more expensive compared to your typical tint place, but you get what you pay for. Good selection, knows what he is talking about.

The only problem I had was I got metallic tint before I knew I was going to buy a aftermarket navi. Fortunately, no problems!
