Are the rear door side windows tinted or only dark colored?

    Picked up a 2020 Tacoma Pro today and noticed the back door and rear windows are darker than the front door windows. Is this tint that protects against heat and UV rays or just darker colored glass that doesn't protect against UV rays? Thanks!

    The rear door and back glass are tinted. Not sure about UV.

    Unless the dealer installed tint it’s colored glass that does nothing for heat just privacy

    Ceramic is the best way to go for tint. Keeps heat out very well

    Anybody know the VLT% on the front windows to match if I decide to go 45%VLT over the rear doors & sliding back window?
