rottweiler Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 do you think 5% tint would cause me any problems (other than from the police of course)? what i mean is seeing out, and ive been told that when its horribly dark with no lights at all that i wont be able to use the side mirrors id have to wind down my window but i dont care, anything other than that people? thanks.

foznice Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 thanks saff.... so how do police defect you for tinted windows? surely wouldn't have a light metre or anything.. or is it just one of those "judgement" things? Does that mean that you can have tinting that is like a mirror to people looking inside the car? I just hate being stared at, and like the feeling of being able to see people that can't see me...

I got 20% all round on my car and its pretty dark. The guy there said he done 5% tint for his mate and a week later he reveresd into a $200,000 mercedes.

saff_cossie Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 The problem you are up against with a lower tint is the legality and finding someone to do it. Not sure how dark 5% would be but I know my 20% rear screen does little else for my eyes than make objects appear sharper (although that could be because it has been washed!) With my 35% on the sides, the only time you can see in, is when there is light straight through at eye height on the other side and even then it is a silohette (sp?) Perhaps pop down the local Ambulance station and ask for a look from the inside although they may not know the definate tint?
