    If I got the two front windows done at 20% would it match with the stock back windows?
    Aren't they 20%?

    Also, is there already really light tint on the front two from the factory? If so, do I just tint over it?

    I got 35% on the front; Pinnacle 35. It measures out at 31.8% in front. $100 installed, which is more than others are posting here, but the Pinnacle is a premium product.

    Does anybody know if the privacy glass on our trucks blocks UV?
    I want to tint the front to match the rear but will add to the rear if it does not block UV.

    Thanks,

    I don't have much, I just had the front windows done to match the rears. That was only $100 but it seems as if I might've gotten a deal.

    To be honest, I don't think its dark enough!

    asking how much tint costs is a loaded question. Tint cost different in every location of the country. Miama, FL for instance you can get an entire car done for 100- but up here in northern ny your looking at 250-300. all depends on location

    I've got a guy figuring me up an estimate on doing up the fronts but I've gotta keep 70% light pass thru because of the law. Plus im a mechanic so I have to inspect the thing so I could get away with it there... maybe.

    Here is a shot of inside looking through windshield, having windshield tinted (although illegal in most states, which i have never caught any trouble over) really helps in keeping the inside cool, dont have to run the a/c as hard, as you can see, you can barely notice that its tinted
