There are a few threads on here dedicated to this. I suggest you search for them to get a variety of percentages.

Here is the 18% in my dad's (with rambox) vs the 15% in mine.(without rambox)

Here's mine with 20% on the front and a 5% windshield strip. It's kind of a crappy pic to show how it matches to the rear but in the sun it looks pretty close. 8c52ef9abff66e8eaa0410b05f5d0ad4.jpg

I just did mine today! I did 25% on the front which with the film they used matched the back sides perfectly. I also added 25% to the back rear window and it pretty much blacked it out considering it was already rated at 32% (stock).

I had them rate the stock windows with the tint meter before they added any type of tint. Rear side windows on my 2014 ram rated at 21%. The back center window rated at 32%. I have no idea why they went lighter on the back window but I fixed that issue today :)

I had the front sides done 2 days ago. They didn't match the rear sides because that would make the front illegal. I got SunTech which although lighter, blocked UV rays/heat.

Not a lot of places where 25% is legal.

How hard is it to see at night with 35% on the front windshield

I've got 40% on mine and I like it. Cuts sun glare drastically and also makes it very difficult to see in at night if your truck sits outside. I do wish I would have went 5% on my front widows though.

I was thinking 40 or 35 for my front windshield but didn't know if it would be to dark. I have 5 on the back and 15 on my front windows now
