    I do use a sun visor for our strong South Florida sun, but the windows still look dark without the visor.
    I just prefer the windows to all look the same tint.

    yes and no, most tint shops will use a lighter tint on the rear windows since they are already dyed from the factory so they match the front tints. The front windows will also almost always be lighter as well if you do not tint the windshield since it lets in so much light, this doesn't apply if you are doing really dark like 5-10%

    so if you want like 15%, They'll do 15 on the front and they rears are dyed already from the factory they might use like a 30% on the rear so it matches the front tint.

    I havent tinted my truck yet but was planning on doing 20% on the backs and sunroof and 35% on the fronts to be legal in Hawaii. Anyone else in Hawaii has done this and is it too dark in the back with the 20% on top of factory? I dont want anyone to be able to see into the back windows, but I also want to be able to see out them at night.
