I got a suggestion, get black adhesive vinyl (the stuff that decal shops cut out letters and decals for cars out of), or have a decal shop cut it to fit your T-Tops, and just apply that. Whole issue solved.

I had mine tinted with 5% over the factory tint over a year ago and have had no problems out of it. I am planning to put another layer of 5% over it soon to make it a little darker, but I hate the t-tops anyway so I don't really care if any light gets in.
