TIP: Don't use glass cleaner with ammonia in it to clean your tinted windows with, it turns them purple. Use soap and water.
I seem to be on a roll today for asking questions only somewhat related to the thread. :o
If you get pulled over and roll down all of your windows so the cops can't tell, if they tell you to roll them back up part way to see do you have to? Jay-Z once told me you don't have to open your glove compartment or trunk if locked without a warrent.
Yes, I'm ignorant when it comes to the specifics of laws because I have still to be pulled over for anything and get my info from hip hop music.

I have 15% on all windows and 35% on the front windshield. It is a perfect combo for blocking sun. It reduces the sun's glare so much that I don't ever wear sunglasses anymore. There is no problems seeing out of it at night either.

Just last week I got 5 all the way around minus the windshield and I love it. the dark on the sides makes everything seem darker. i have yet to even be close to the need to wear sunglasses and I have driven in all parts of the day. I am however still getting used to backing up and turning sometimes at night
I had 5% on the rear, 18% on the front, and 50% on the windshield.. it will make the front windows darker than you think..
I wouldn't recommend doing anything darker than 40% on the windshield, if there's fog/rain/new moon and you don't drive on lit roadways you'll have some issues seeing to the edge of your headlights.

I've got an 2003 super cab with 2.5% on all the windows. I had 55% windshield tint but took it off cause driving in the rain was quite annoying!!! I put a 2.5% 13inch drop Strip on the front and the side windows still look as dark as they did before. (But I have no tint laws where I live)

& I seen they just stick the inspection & emissions stickers right on there, no need to keep retinting.
Northern Arizona has no vehicle inspection but I also live at the Grand Canyon where I work and we fall under fedral law and they have no tint laws I have special plates for my truck so I end up with the best of both worlds lol
I have a 20% brow on the top of the windshield and on the bottom of the windshield. Looks really unique. It hasnt bother my vision and have never had problems with the cops on it. To get the right shape out of the brow, just have you tint guy use a compass and follow along the top of the winshield.
