Applying a tint will actually make the situation worse due to the reflective properties of the film applied which are greater than the glass without a tint. The issue on mine was finally eradicated with the fitment of a 'tinted glass' (not an applied tint) rear safari door window. If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

I have film tint in my 2012 110 and the reflections are awful. I asked Dave at VGS about tinted glass and he reckoned there would still be reflections.

Mal, are you saying they are no reflections at all, or just that they are not a problem in real life and much better than film?

Having not been able to see anything at all at night through my rear view mirror with tinted film windows a VGS rear window vastly improves the situation and IMHO is much better than standard with no tint at all. If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!
