in utah the limit is 43% on the front windows which doesn't leave alot of options. I run 35% on my front windows, which isn't enough to draw any attention from the cops. my favorite is 5% all around but for me using the truck as a hunting truck, the tint is a pain to deal with there being that dark and the highway patrol will get you sooner or later. 35% gives me the advantages of tint without the cops attention and still allows me to see out in fading light when out hunting.

Where i live your not allowed any. Yet its hardly enforced. Unless your asking for it in other ways like loud music or exhaust with a lowered rice rocket on rims etc..

I think it looks great not to mention helping keep the truck cooler on those hot days!! Unfortunately here in Cali it is an immediate ticket...no tinting allowed on driver or passenger front windows.

Looks great. I did the same to mine the first week I got it. Best upgrade yet, as far as looks. Plus it helps keep the interior cooler in the summer.

I just had my tint installed this past Friday also. I only tinted the front driver and passenger windows with 20% and it matches the other windows perfectly. I just went with the 5 year warranty stuff. It was all hand cut but they didn't remove the door panels. I have had all of my last 12 autos done and never had any of them remove the panels to do the tinting.

No add-on list is complete unless it includes the EZ-Down Tailgate Assist! Here's a tiny little thread about it in case you missed it:

It has a lot of "Ooooh, Ahhhhhh" factor to it..... the looks on people's faces when they first see it in action makes it pay for itself!

I never had any problems with window tint on my GM dually so I opted for 35% on the front windows and a total 'limo' tint on the back 3. You cannot see into the back seats of my truck.
