You will never match it.
The original privacy glass has the "mirrored" look to it.
My crewcab has it on the back 3 windows. I am looking for Clear windows to tint so they will all match

I heard that the front and rear side glass on the crew cabs is the same, it sure looks like it to me..... My plan was to find four rear factory tinted windows out of a crew cab and swap em in for a full factory tint look. Mine are all clear even the rear slider but I have a factory tinted rear for it.

FWIW I have 2 factory tinted extend cab rear windows if anyone is interested.

The brick nose never had tinted windows so any tint will work

not a complete true statement . my truck did come that way but at the same time mine also was a complete custom order . from the gold trim to the axle gears to other things . i have a friend who works for the ford dealership here and had pull the build paper on my truck to see how it was ordered . i will have to see if i can locate what the wife did with it and post it .
