You got a strip of tint on the top of the windshield?

How's the visibility?

Anyhow, I have 35% on the side windows and the back window is 20%.

I don't remember who posted the image, but someone did 7% on the sides and 17% in the rear and I think that looked perfect.

You guys with 5% tint, that make claims of being able to see fine at night are smoking crack. My 35/17% cuts visibility down ALOT, but not to the point that it's terrible. I have been in quite a few cars with 5% tint at night, and unless the roads your driving on are well, well lit, with streetlights, visibility from inside the car is shit.

here's my setup: 35% sides, 17% rear

limo all around and 50% on the entire front window.. on both cars..

LOVE it..


as far as the guy complaining of not being able to see, i see fine.. sometimes out to the side its difficult because of the reflection of the guages in the tint.. but kids shouldnt be playing at night and if u hit one just keep driving.lol

I think you just said it all. I can see fine at night but i would never take my car in an area that was not lit up. I don't want to hit a deer or have my car stolen. In a small car 5% is fine but in something big it sucks, the further away from the window you are the harder it is to see through.
