My OCD strikes again...
Since the day I bought the truck the windows have been bothering me (windshield aswell). They're 35% front windows/windshield. They're a tad darker then the rears but not noticeable. I feel so much better seeing it evened out, lol.

looks good.
Isn't OCD fun? I put 80% on the windshield, all rear windows, and moonroof. Put 35% on the front two windows. In Hawaii tint is a necessity and the percentages I used are all perfectly legal here. |

In NY we're only allowed 70% on the front windows and nothing on the windshield (except the top strip). |

Are you really allowed 70% on the front windows in NY/NYC? Do you have a link for these regulations by any chance? I've heard that you're not allowed anything on the front windows at all, not even 95%...

Just to clarify, we're talking 35% of light allowed through (65% blocked)?

Looks great, JeST!
I had 35% on my side windows and nothing on the windshield. It was blatantly obvious and I hated the contrast, so I evened it out by putting 55% on my windshield. Now and it looks much better. The only downside is that my awesome new LED Headlights don't seem as crisp as they did before the tint. I guess that's the trade off... |

So after 3 police stops, two of which tickets I had to get the 35% windshield tint removed. I went to 70% and haven't had one issue since. Cops around Chicago suburbs are dicks
