No pics, but had the passanger side and the drivers side matched to the rear factory tint of the SCREW doors and rear sliding window. All 5 windows now match perfectly.

Don't have any pics...just imagine a truck with black windows from the outside. I had my car done with "Charcool" 20% a couple of years ago and love it. That place closed down, so I went to a place that uses "Llumar" film for the truck - also 20%. It looks OK from the outside, but inside looking out, this Llumar film has a blue tint while the factory has a bronze hue. I think the Charcool brand tint would have been a perfect match.

Alright here you go. They arent the best but. It is 35% on the front two windows with a 5% strip and the back windows and back glass have a sheet of 20% over top the factory tint. I have 5% all around on my 93 F-150 which is nice but this setup on the new truck is nice for a everday and every night driver.

I have 35% on my front windows and the backs are just factory privacy glass.
I wish my fronts were a bit darker but the legal limit here is 35% and I didn't want to deal with the popo's hassling me or giving me any tickets.

all those trucks look pretty, but only 1 guy said anything that was truly relavant.

35% is almost the universal legal limit. Why do some of you guys have 5% tint. that is freakin' dark. how do you see at night?
