I'm a tinter here in Texas, I have to layers of film on my windshield, 1. IR film as someone stated you can not tell it is on there and it blocks 80% uv and then a 40% supreme film for headlight glare and daytime light rejection. I also have limo all around.

Not the best picture but still has sun shining on it...got 35 put on the entire thing and have not regretted it once. I've had it over a year (through the summer and winter now) and now don't even notice it.

Not the best pic, but here's 40%. It looks a good bit darker because I have 5% everywhere else. So far no problems at all with le. I've gone thru several road blocks, and unfortunately a couple of tickets without it ever being noticed. Around here they don't make you remove it on the spot, you just get a ticket and court date. I'll pay the ticket before I remove it.

It makes such a huge impact visually, both of your trucks look amazing. When I have an extra $85 I'm def getting this done, 35% seems to be the magic number for that, the rest of my cab is 15%

If any of you guys with tinted windshields come to TN let me know so I can get in front of you and slam on my brakes. Nothing against you personally, but a lawyer would have so much fun suing you and I'd be rich.
