Default Rear hatch tint question

What % is it from the factory? I did a search but didn't come up with anything.

I want to try to match the same darkness on the side windows because I think the rear hatch tint is almost perfect(could be a tad darker though)

Anyone?

From the factory...... no tint. It must have been a dealer option.

If its anything its VERY mild. An example would be my moms envoy (i know, its an SUV) the front side windows are 74%, the back is 14%. I'd imagine the back of an f-body is 74% if anything, probably no tint though.

And the glass itsself is tinted on her truck , no tint layer on it, its built in or something from the factory, so if there is any tint layer on your window it was probably added somewhere between the original sale and when you got it.
