Factory window tint percentage?

I am wanting to tint the front windows of my 2011 F350 to match the rears. Anybody know off the top of their head what the factory window tint percentage on the rears is?
Thanks!

Aftermarket tint around 20% usually comes closest to the rear privacy windows

Yeah I heard 18% so I got 15% on the front since it was closer than 35% (my only 2 choices at the time) and the 15% is a titch too dark. I bet 20% would be perfect.

20% looks good to me.

What is the highest you can get away with, legally, on the driver's and front passenger windows? I'm sure it may vary by state. I have been stopped in mine by a state trooper, but It was my work truck and he let me go.

It does vary by state.

I have 5% all the way around but its highly illegal! In TN and quiet a few states 35% is the darkest you can go on the front 2 doors.

Here is some info on each state.
