Default It kinda depends on the angle-here's another pic that doesn't look as dark...

I'm thinking about maybe 50% on Fronts ( MI Law doesnt allow front),&amp; 35% behind the B-Pillars.

Default I have a black interior, and with the solar sunroof/hot weather package....

the only time the seats are hot is if they are in direct sunlight. Jim- what % transmissivity is the film you tinted with? I may need some soon.

Default Last time I was checked by the Federalis,

I was legal by 1%. I can't say what level the film is since it came on the car when I bought it. What does suck is it's illegal in CA to have your front windows tinted, so I may have to eat a couple of tickets here and there.

Not sure of the tint %, but it was put on by a pro and the cop's machine said it was 2% illegal

Default Here you go ....

Also check out the Picture Poster

The tint is 35% all the way around. In the pictures it looks kinda dark. its not. you can pretty much see through it all the time.

I went with a bronze 3M color stable tint. (Its discontinued now) I think it really compliments the car and the color. in the sun it definitely looks bronzeish.
