    I got mine done last weekend- they used 20% so they're a little darker than the rear windows, but you can't tell unless you're inside the truck. $65 installed.

    I would also be interested in knowing what % they used to match the back. I've been wanting to do this since my first Tacoma and haven't gotten around to it yet.

    Haha. Where I lived a friend got stopped in her driveway as she was about to pull on to the road. They told her she could peel it or get a ticket.

    I have 32% now which is legal. But I want to match my tint a little bit more on my new TACO when I get it. Is it a lot harder to see at night with that dark of a tint??

    Yeah... But she was trying to pull out. And it was limo tint dark. Theres no point in arguing with LEO's in a small town. They will just stop you the next time you drive by. lol
