Windshield Tinting (which %)
Right now, I have 5% limo on all my windows. Today I just had a brand new windshield installed so im thinking about have that tinted. Would 20% be too dark, or should I just get 35%? I have a prescription so im not worried about getting pulled over, Im worried about being able to see at night.

If you are doing the complete windshield then 75-70% at the most and use a film that has a low reflectance value.
If you are doing a 6-inch strip at the top then 35% is fine.

Definitely illegal. However my buddy had it on his car and from the outside it looked really sharp. From the inside on the other hand it made night driving more difficult and it there were slight blurrs that were rather irritating.
