I agree, 5% or 6% on the rear three are no problem. Even with sunglasses on I can see out of them just fine, and at night headlights show up nicely but no longer pierce through my eyes into my brain.

Backing up at night can be more difficult than usual, but it's not like you've ever had great visibility in that situation anyway.

Put a strip of 5 or 6% across the top of the windshield, too, and then go as dark as is legal in your area on the front doors (30% in my area).

ha i'm planning to go darker than the legal limit CA is a little too strict on the front windows...i just want it all dark especailly with the stereo stuff i plan to buy, don't want any thugs looking in for something to steal...and i think the dark tint will help when i have dates in the car...just kidding maybe i'll settle for just 15% for back and 20% for front
