[/quote]35% is the lowest that's legal here, and I wasn't really interested in trying to get an exception, nor do I really like how cars look with the windows blacked out but the windshield normal, so I've got 45% film added to the stock tint. Ends up around 40, I think.

[/quote] I have 45% front, 35% rears (legal limit here) and I have a very hard time backing up at night. Way too dark. I should have gone 45% all around, keep it looking balanced. I think that will be the plan if we ever tint the wagon. In my province, trucks and vans only have a tint limit on the front windows, the rears can be painted solid if you wanted.

Re: This Made My Day/Improved My Day Thread! - zaneyard - 04-07-2013 RIP in peace comcast internet connection 4044x3860 Wouldn't sunglasses be a superior alternative if that was the only motive? I guess it helps keep your car cooler in the sun but we have air conditioning so that's not a very good point.
