    Ok so I've finally got a new Tacoma and I want to get my front windows tinted same as the rear windows on my double cab. I'd love for them to match. My friend told me a 35% tint is the max I can go and still be legal in my area. Does anyone know what the rear window tint is factory on a double cab? It's a 2015 if that matters. I know absolutely nothing about tint so any help or recommendations are welcome!

    Mine is close at 20%. It also depends on the brand of tint as some match better than others.

    Any tint shop worth going to will be able to tell you, and match it.

    Yes 35% in NC, it matches pretty close a tad lighter but better than darker in the front than back.
