I don't drive a lot at night. This car is a toy, not a DD. I've had 5% on plenty of my cars over the years at night, so I'm used to it. I tested it out tonight with the Morimoto headlights and honestly, can't tell the windshield is tinted. I had no problems with visibility and I live out in a rural area where it's super dark. If I still lived downtown, I probably would have gone 35%. This is the first car I've ever tinted the windshield.

Got my first oil change today. Tires rotated, too.

Skirts went on today! Also put in the TRD short shifter. Is it just me or is that rubber dustboot a pure bitch? Taking the old one off was a pain in the ass trying to stretch it over all the existing crap. Then after installing the new short shifter after adding pin, have it was such a nightmare trying to stretch the hole over everything with greasy fingers. On top of that, i didn't realize the washer fell off before I put the pin in so I have the joys of removing the damn dust cover and putting it back on tomorrow morning.

I'm a noob, this is first time I've every done work on my own car and shit is taking much longer than it should lol

That's not unusual for the first few times. When you get older, it will be easier, you'll look at it and say to yourself "nah, that would take too long and take too much effort, there ain't nutten wrong with the way it is".
