I understand it's not "clear"... perhaps I should start referring to them as "factory glass" or "without aftermarket tint".... but most likely I will continue to call it clear... lol
Factory tint maybe? I’m a glazier so it bugs me when somebody calls glass that’s obvious got tint to it as clear. It’s green as hell if you hold a piece of paper behind it. But go ahead, call it clear lol. The same tint is used in 1/4” flat lami glass. There’s normal tint which is the green, bronze and grey available as stock tints. Then there’s clear which looks way different than the stock green tint. I used to cut patterns for the old cars when they used flat laminated for the doors and vents. Yes Im old lol.

Reminds me of the lessons I got about glass when I did a short stint as an intern at Guardian Glass’s float glass plant in Iowa.

Gotta be able to see at night. Not sure how people drive around with windsields tinted

That's why I went with a 70% film on the windshield... you would never even know it was on there if I didn't tell you.

I agree... lots of guys on here running 50% and some even running 35% or more on the entire windshield.... I wouldn't want to drive their trucks at night... that is for sure.

I did the 20% on the front side windows for a little more privacy and because it is hot as hades in Florida.
