im 21. nice job on the age dig there.
5% light transmission means the light available to your eyes is only 5% of what the untinted glass would be. thats a 95% reduction in your seeing capabilities. i have sat in cars with 20% and 30%. 20% might be ok during the day, but at night backing up can be a nightmare. "i can see perfectly fine" is completely subjective. "I CAN SHWALK JUSH FFINE OFFISHHERRR!!" right. |

Backing out of driveways at night is fixed with taking two seconds to roll your windows down. I have 5% (aka limo, but "limo tint" sounds so juvenile) on all my windows, and in SoCal where I have my windows down most of the time anyway, nighttime visibility has never been an issue for me.

20% is too dark? Wow, I don't know if your vision really degrades that much with age, but I have 5% on all my windows (except windshield, obviously), and I can see perfectly fine. Also, 30% is not dark, at all. You can see straight through it and pretty clearly make out who's inside. |

It's a close race between him and the guy who opens other people's 350Z doors to peek inside.
On second thought - we have a winner - tinted windshield :-) Dave |
This thread is still alive?
I need the post count anyway. |
Don't forget to put on your sunglasses. That way your sure not to see that pedestrian. I guess you could use the Braille System when driving.
Seeing's how you will be legally blind. |

woa....i didn't even catch that. now that's the pot calling the kettle black

Um. Yeah. I'll admit I got a 20% (or is it 80%?) tint on my windshield and it's barely noticeable. I still feel a little nervous about it, though it's fine at night. In fact, it's way clearer than most of the smudgy windshields out there. But limo tint? What is that, 5% of light gets through? Dang.
|
Does anyone know what the legal tint for your car windows in the State of California is?
