I love my tinted windshield. It's actually legal in VA to have it done. I've had 35 and 50 but prefer 50. All my cars have it and been doing it for 10 years now.

Yes there are two piece meters but more expensive so most carry the slide on meter for roll up windows.

My Denali the entire windshield is tinted 30% and I've also got a 5% brow that comes down 8-9". The sides are 5% on top of 5%. I don't have issues seeing out in the day or night. If you would like a inside picture looking out I can post one.

My duramax has %45 on the windshield and a 5% brow but it only comes down 6".

50% Windshield and 20% on the sides. People tell me all the time they can only see my knuckles during the day time. Having had 5% on the side windows with the windshield tint, its like driving in a fish bowl at night when the sides are to dark if you live in rural areas.

Here in NY, it's illegal to have the windshield tinted, other than the top strip, which can't extend below 6". Front side windows aren't supposed to block more than 35% of the light, whereas the rear and back windows can be completely blacked out if desired (I had a friend who spray painted his:badidea:).

Yea I don't get it either . Its cool looking for show cars but not practical for a dd. Unless youre a drug dealer or the president lol.
Just like 5$ on the sides, not really necessary. I like have full visual of my surroundings without doubt.
Plus I'm a rediculous good looking guy so I want them ladies at the stop lights to see me :gayfight:

My eyes are sensitive to bright lights. I knew it was illegal but had it done anyway. That wasn't my daily driver, only drove it on nice days and in the summer. Was done for couple years before I got popped for it.

It's 70% legal here, I am eyeing the 50%. Buddy of mine quoted $75 for legal and $100 for 50%. I'm undecided

Its also 70% here, don't really see that as worth it, think im going to go with 50% on my driver and passenger side which is the limit here, and a 20% brow to match the factory, just for now.
