Perimeter alarm..... in an HOA?

 

have you thought about doing the 4runner? something like 70-80pct over the rear factory smoked glass keeps the UV and IR heat out without making it darker

 

New house won't have HOA

Maybe I'll give some to @BartMaster1234 so he can really freak out his neighbors

 

Yes sir I have, but I'd guess it'd have to be a lower percentage over the factory tint.

I'll need it for once I move to Fresno.

What's your tint all the way around?

Factory in the rear with aftermarket tint on top?

 

yeah 70-80 percent (of Visible Light Transmission) are really light shades -- they let 70 or 80 percent of light through.

Factory is normally like 20-25 percent. An 80 over a 20 gives you .80x.20 or about the same at 16pct tint, though it will probably be a little lighter because the VLT of smoked glass is wonkier than a tint film.

 

Cool.

 

the fronts are 20-35 pct (they were tinted when I got the truck so I don't know the exact number).

I had them add 35pct over the factory smoked glass on the rear doors and back glass. Combined it is lighter than limo tint at about 7-12pct VLT.

 

I forgot to check the ODO before I dropped it off so I'm not sure if they took it for a joyride or let it idle a bunch but my MPG dropped from 16 to 15 ...

 

No sway bar makes your truck wander like a mofo

 

Hmm...gives me a better idea of what I should go with then.

I love the look of really dark tint, but have to consider the difficulty of looking around me late at night.

It doesssss

 

yeahhhh I think that's part of why jeeps and brodozers have so many fucking LEDs


When I was looking up reference trucks a surprising number of people talked about having limo tint all the way around and 20 or 35pct tint on the windshield

 

You noticing this behavior on normal roads?

Or the fire roads you're constantly driving on?

How's the new job going anyway

 

Yea, normal roads.

we got the day off today but I drove out to the office to do homework.

it’s a cake walk everyone’s super chill, let me do my own thing.

 

First I'm hearing of this

Sure your tie rods are good? Did you do steering rack bushings with everything else?

 

Has a wisdom tooth extracted this afternoon. The numbing agent is wearing off. My mouth feels like it's on fire.

 

Just make sure they work and add traction

 

I can tell you I felt no real change in both the Tacoma and 4Runner when I pulled the sway bars off, but others have felt what you stated so I don't write it off completely.

That's pretty badass though; enjoy it while you can!
