Default Tint on 2000 ext cab

Does anyone know the % on the back windows of this truck I want to match my front and I was wondering if it would be legal

I literally just got done tinting my windows 5 mins ago lol. I put 20% on and it seems to match the rears really well. I'll grab you a pic really quick

factory tint on the back is 20. I had them measure it when I tinted my front windows.

on my supercrew the back is 15%, because I can tell a small difference between my front (which is 20%) an back class which is 15%. can't really tell because that's the day I got it but I notice it during the day kinda barely lol

I am 20% all the way around on my screw. Be careful for the laws in your area.

x2 yeah deff check on that! I got illegal tint on my truck because the cops in my parish don't care about tint. if the cops are strict where you live I wouldn't get illegal, stick to what the legal % is.

The only reason i was able to get the front windows tinted was because I have Utah plates in Texas, so I don't have to follow their rules. Take that, Texas!

Any tint looks good imo. Go with what's legal.
