If i'm correct it helps keep the brightness of the sun lowered when inside the car...no?
So when rays hit its not as bright inside? |

UV filters. Try looking at the glass with polarized sunglasses, they get pretty funky.

Try looking at it with polarized glasses and it's even more noticeable.

If you look at polarizers with polarizers at the correct angles you will either 1) completely block out All light or 2) amplify the light :P

Subaru has been doing this process in the glass for years on the cars. It's a mild tint that block most all UVA and UVB rays.

It looks horrible but ive seen it on BMW's, mercedes, etc etc. Nothing you can do about it and its completely normal.
