    Ya does anybody have any suggestions on backup lights? That is starting to sound like a good idea.

    IMHO......My 08 tacoma was 5% all they way around..... too dark for a daily driver. Get 20%on your front sides, and 5% on the rear and you will be much more happy. My 09 is this way and I love it. 5% is dangerous at night on your front sides..... the 20% looks almost as dark with the rest of the glass double tinted.

    I did 15% all the way around on an 02 DC. Looks great. You can tint the front windshield too, it's like 70+ precent. Which is really light but makes a huge difference.

    Or just roll your windows and turn your dome lights on when the cop pulls ya over...
