About that blind spot... I'm considering sticking on those convex things on the mirrors. I hate the way they look, but I've had them on all my other vehicles

7% all around except front I got 17%. Still very drivable at night

i just did a test vid to test the new gopro hero 3 black out. it shows you my 5% pretty good. i can see through it a little better then the video shows tho.

20% all around (same on every vehicle I've ever owned):

You know, I thought I got 20 all around, but it doesn't look that dark.

Could just be the fact that there is no direct light on or in the car, and given the angle, makes it seem darker then what it is.

Can someone post pics or vid of tint from inside at night please.

Burrcold · 11-12-2012, 03:36 PM

The way I think of 20% is that you can you see basic outlines of the person inside. At night, it's almost completely black and in direct sunlight it's transparent enough to tell if it's a male or female driver. 35% you could pretty much tell all of the above in all types of light. Obviously anything lower than 20% and you aren't seeing anything (although I find anything less than 20% to be too difficult to drive in at night).

Here is a better view (with some light) of my 20%:

Cajun · 11-12-2012, 03:43 PM

Legally in Louisiana we have to have 40% in the front. But that's almost nothing, especially on a dark colored car.

15% (Front/Passenger & rear) for me~ takes a bit getting used to. Can't lie i roll the windows down to back into places.
