One thing I would recommend is to tint over the back windows. I had the front 2 of my Screw done as well as the back three tinted over. Ford does not tint these from the factory. THey are simply color injected glass and are for nothing more than looks. If you live in a warm climate, go for the metallic tint that will reflect the heat. It sure makes a difference down here in the Texas heat. Take a look in my gallery if you want an idea of how it will look.

Thanks for all the info guys. I don't know what percentage of tint to get now. I was going to go with 35%, but I want it to be dark. I have tv's in my truck and I don't want people to beable to see them from outside. I may just get the front two done to 35% for now and then I can get the back three done later when I have more cash. A layer of 5% on the back three windows will really make the front ones look dark.

Ease up there Josh... everyone's just having a good time. No need to get all torked... geesh. Live a little. Laughter is a beneficial thing sometimes.

I did my front windows @ 20%. Matches the rear pretty good. Haven't been pulled over yet. But helps to have someone in the city council here!https://www.f150online.com/galleries....cfm?gnum=2744

Looks good. I still think 20% is a little to dark for me, I think I am going to go with 35%.

35% is alot lighter than original. I would stick with 20%. Then again I have a sunroof which lets light in, too.
