A professional tinter will know what is legal in your area. I live in SC, and have 30% on the front door windows, and 5% (Limo) on the rear doors, and rear wagon windows. I love it! I carry expensive scuba equipment in the rear and like the fact that it is impossible to see from outside.


You will like the fact that it keeps the interior cooler too of course. The manufacturer might supply a test data sheet that shows what it filters out. I found a company called Sunbusters that tinted all 3 cars and 2 sides of my house in one day. Some of the best money that I have spent (only $800).

On a related note: If you have tinted windows and get pulled over by police, it is a good idea to go ahead and roll your driver's window down before he approaches the car, or even before you come to a complete stop. Then put both hands on the steering wheel and keep them there. It will put the officer at ease, and he'll be nicer to you!

good luck
