Default Privacy glass. Window tint.

My 2012 f150 has the lighter windows on the driver and passenger doors.

I'd like to get them tinted darker to match the rest of the windows.

What tint percentage would I need to get?

I don't want them darker then the other windows.

you can go as dark as the law allows in your state. if you want to match, i think 35% is right.

Different tint companies make different tint percentages, the tint my installer uses is 18% and matches just about perfectly.

15-20% is right, depends on what the brand offers. Go to a quality car shop that uses good tint. Around here its $50-60 for the front doors. Mine is 20%, i have black leather, so its dark even when u look from the front of my truck. I had a windshield eyebrow put on in 20% also
