Well, i know some of you have your windows tinted, so i want to know how dark is too dark for the front and rear windows? Should i do 25% all around, or would it be hard to see at night? I want it to be dark, but not dark enough were i can't see through my passengers side window at all. Thanks.

5% is nice but if you want to keep a really good visibility go 15%... 25% is barely anything.. I had 20% before i went to 5% and it was alright.. just a little more visibility in than i would like.. if you do 15% up front 5% in backs and 15% back window.. you will be good.. don't go too dark on back window.. you will see why when its raining in the dark.. backing out of parking spots is hard as ****!!!

I may a bit different than most, but I like 20%. Seeing at night > being cool.
