^exactlty. daylight visibility has never been an issue with tinting you're windows. its night driving that's the problem. and most people i know of that are "scared" of tint, are more worried about how getting tickets, which will be more likely with it.
personally i dont worry too much about any of that, and i'll be adding windshield tint next time i get mine done.

to be honest with you, it's no different than a car without tint on the windshield. No one has ever noticed it being dark from the inside, and at night you have your headlights to light up the road. it's absolutely no problem what so ever.
like i said above, really no noticeable difference.
I've never gotten pulled over for it much less gotten a ticket for it and i've had it for almost 2 years now.
50% would be a waste of time and money in my opinion, it's basically clear.
35% is the winner

Verdad Gallardo i read it, and stated my opinion. 35% would still be more worth it, and better over all. kthxbai
I had 5% all the way around on my ranger and 50% on the windshield. It was noticeably darker at night but not too bad. I wouldn't go past 50%. I still had the strip up top so it wouldn't be as obvious to police that it was tinted. In broad daylight you could look into the truck and not see my sitting in the driver's seat.
if you guys are looking for something to block the heat, they make a ceramic tint that is clear. my tint guy says it blocks out almost the same amount of heat and UV that my 5% blocks. it's expensive, but worth the investment.
I did mine to block people from seeing my stereo. I had a $600 subwoofer between my seats in the truck... didn't want it to get swiped. This is the only pic of the truck I have... took it when the lower radiator hose cracked. Nice clean coolant haha, but you can see how dark even 50% is. If you look closely you can see my upside-down ford emblem

but seems like this is what HoLLo is looking for.

the shop that does my windows will do it all, but you have to pay cash, you get no receipt, and they tell you if you get pulled over for it, not to say you got it done there. you still get lifetime warranty and all, just no paper trace, so they dont get into trouble
As for finding shops to do it, a lot more than you think will.. I mean, after you get a ticket, who are you going to take it to to get stripped and re-tinted?!
.. Durrrr
