hey guys anyone have 15% tint on the front windows? Am on the fence between 20% and 15%, I have a medical exemption so tickets are not an issue. I want it to match the back but a little darker is not the worst thing. Any opinions?

I have 15 percent on my whole front windshield. And 5 percent every where else.

When I got mine done, the shop said 20% matches the factory tint. I think it looks great.

I’ve never had any trouble with mine at night. Only trouble I could see if for people in northern states and snow and ice getting on the headlights and not being able to see as good at night.

I bought my truck used and the windows were all tinted. I tried to drive with them rhat way. A lot of my driving is early morning or late evening. I had a hard time seeing to make turns. Left turns especially. It didn't take me long to remove the tint from the front windows.

Thanks for the info guys. I wasn’t sure what the big difference was between 15 and 20%. I just want it to not be terrible at night but don’t want to go to light with 20 that I regret it later

You should take into consideration whether your gonna use smoked or limo black. This is what makes the difference.
The # 15 n 20 are how much u is allowed in.

Maybe I'm just becoming an old fart, but would be worried about driving around at night with a 15% tint on the windshield.

Actually I have 15 on my windshield. It’s really not bad and actually pretty amazing once you do it.

Correct. Front 15 back factory. Almost perfect match
