Hey I appreciate that a lot! Thank you!!

Hey! Glad it helped and really appreciate the feedback on it! Once the weather clears I plan to make another one of these with my current vehicles since this one did so well!

Thank you! I do need to make an update video as the truck is the only vehicle I still have in the fleet. Had 3 additional vehicles that need to make the new video with different tint setups!

Appreciate you! You’ll love it!

Did you get it? I have 5% all around, and Im thinking abt getting 35% windshield tint this week

Did either of you get the 35? I have 15 on front sides and 5 on rear

@@jmastro304 I am on my Corvette now.. I need to make an updated video here!

Do you ever get stopped for 5 percent

Get 50 in cermic if youbjust want heat reducted by alot and get read of the uv rays hitting your skin. And like you seen on his video 35% great. And not go darker then 35%. Caple of seeing dueingthe day.but if you go darker then 35 vision at night well be reduced by 85 oercent. Went thru it. Never hut anyhing but you do habe trouble seeing at night. And i wear glasses..

What did you get and how is it I got a q50 and need this too

@@jbxlitI got 45% on the windshield. I can definitely tell it’s on there in areas with few street lights but in city and facing oncoming cars it’s great. I use my high beams in rural areas and problem solved

Thank you for the positive comment!

Thank you for the positive comment! Just did my Vette last week.. it’ll be the latest video on my channel!

Appreciate that!

Thank you so much for the positive review!

exact same situation for me. I've always got either 5% or 15% on the sides/rear glass, and have always done 50% on the windshield. That changes to 35% windshield next time.

@@rcdesigns same and also to other dude, SAME! No more girl 50%. 35% or nothing windshield! Not that girls are derogatory but makes it sound cooler in the less woke world we lived in. 😉

5% (total, after application to factory stained glass) is okay for the rear and rear sides, but not great at night. 5% is too dark IMO for front sides, especially when combined with something light like 50% or higher on the windshield. Shih feels like all of the light is being directly funneled into your eyes. My fav is 15% rears, 25% front sides, and 50% windshield if I'm gonna do any driving at night. Otherwise, limo rears, 15% front sides, and 35% windshield for a daytime-only car that can make maybe an emergency night trip home. Sunroof no darker than 50% or you ain't seeing anything at night. Also, always at least ceramic, if not IR (which is like ceramic+). If you're worried about cops or can't get a medical exception, 35 front sides, 70 windshield, 25 rears. IR-70 is essentially clear since untinted glass meters at around 75% VLT and tint is rated based on application to clear glass. IR-70 is also the best for application to factory stained glass since that's usually around 15%-25%, and as such, won't change with the effectively clear 70% VLT of IR-70. If you really want the DARKEST tint, though, feel free to apply IR-5 to factory-stained glass. You'll get a legit 1% or less VLT that way.

Was there a lot of difference between the 50% tint on the windshield and 5% tint all around? Like could you tell the windshield was significantly less tinted than the rest of the vehicle? Also, what tint material did you go with?

Hey thank you brother for the nice review and support!

Happy to help!

Agreed 👆🏼

Super late reply coming from someone with 20 percent..yea I know that's dark... And wanted to go 15 percent at one point... Grad in the daytime no matter how hot it's like huge glasses over the windshield itself🤣 still have my review up when I used to have it in my vehicle. So I recommend it.. honestly no.. unless your 110 percent your only driving during the day and never at night then go ahead... But if you know sometime down the road that well happen then don't do it. Well waste money on getting it applied then cost to remove it and reapply a lightly tint.. want the dark look but not really sacrifice your vision 35 percent.... And like I've said yes what am about to say well be more costly then normal average tint... Want more comfortable experience when driving or when it's traffic and sun is beaming.. get yourself some ceramic tint.. if you dislike the dark look go with 70% ceramic tint.. if you don't even want a haze look at all. But if you want a bit of the haze look removed from other drivers coming towards you get 50.... But 35 percent is perfect... to have the dark look from the outside and pretty clear from the inside.. "ceramic tint" for my area for ceramic 160 for 2 windows. 200 for just the rear. 175 for the windshield up front. Ceramic.. and for normal tint it's 140. And around 200 bucks to get your old tint totally removed.. at first I thought ceramic was more money wasted but it's not honestly.... Don't know where to start?? Big difference you well notice is your whole entire windshield in ceramic darker tint doesn't matter. As long as it's ceramic tint you well be happy. And the rear window. The sides can be 70% if you don't want darker windows at all.... Want a perfect tint set up. 35% all around including the windshield if you want a slightly dark look but still see during the night. And of course ceramic.. hope I helped you guys. From my point of view. If you want the pretty dark look like myself.. 35% windshield. 20% front doors. 5% back and rear. And currently just added 35% in the rear in ceramic.. and well be applying 50% ceramic on the windshield. And in the future have 35% on the doors and that's it. My perfect setup. Privacy day and night. Seen other go as far as 5% all the way around and 20- or 5 over that.. and just keep the windshield stock. Only apply 5% brow. To me that's to much..

Go for it... I had 20% back then loved it. Was dark. But nighttime was a nightmare. 35 is still great. Able to see daytime and night. Because with 50 only get a slight difference of tint. With 35 it's like actual haveing glasses on your windshield. Unable to till other looking right at you. But still able to see daytime and nighttime no problem...

Absolutely, thank you!

I got 35% it's not dark enough im going down to 20%

Best combo IMO 👍

@@valduuu107 no I don’t. It’s a really good look and like he said in the video windshield tint has become the new normal.

@@valduuu107 I’ve been lucky since getting mine done a year and a half ago. No tickets to date 🙏🏼

in my country i could go full 5% if I wanted.. I got it 5 all around and 35 windshield. nanoceramic IR film.

@@neometalx9 I am doing that now. Windshield is done tomorrow

☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼

The real reason there are tint laws is because when you get to a certain percentage, especially double layers, it’s extremely difficult to see at night/in the rain which obviously creates a safety hazard for you and other motorists/pedestrians. Before I got my first car with tint (5% windows/30% windshield) I too thought that tint laws were dumb, but now I completely understand why they exist. I still roll with illegal tint but again, it’s pretty obvious why there are laws restricting how dark you can go

@@natpeterson9735 yup… I generally don’t go too dark because of that. It’s hard enough to see with 20% at night

@@natpeterson9735 Tint laws were written with the lowest common denominator of society in mind. Yes grandma who just got out of cataracs surgery may find night driving with limo tint impossible. However if you have 20/20 vision, then you will know that 30% tint on the windshield does not impair vision at night whatsoever.

I say this because I have 20/20 and get by fine at night with a high quality 20% tint on front windows and 30% windshield. Couldn't imagine dropping down to 5% for night driving lol

I just did 35% for having 50% for a year. I have limo everywhere else, excited for tomorrow!

@@snkrcactus5675 I’ve never had it before thinking 50% would be good to start?

Hey man how did it go? Recommendation between 35 and 50?

You’ll love it!

Nice! So mandatory if you value probably

@@zekecowans7792 yes it helps to hide personal property as well. Good point.

Yes 50 percent is nice on the windshield

So you think a 5% all around should have a 50% windshield instead of 35%?

@@jwalkerftw I just got the 35 on my windshield it's beautiful u can see still

do yhu think a light grey interior causes tint to look lighter too ? im stuck bc i wanna get 35% all round but idk how much the light grey interior would effect the darkness n shi.

@@chrissoler7758 If u have a light grey I would do 20%. If you do 35 it will definitely be a light tint. Depending on your preference.

Eh it may not sure. Haven’t kept a vehicle long enough to find out!

Thanks, man! I’m happy with 35% on the truck. I need to make a new one of these because the VW and Ford have been replaced with a Corvette with 35% windshield and an Audi with 50%.

⁠@@JohnWargo93Do you have a recent video that shows the 35% windshield of the Corvette?

@@andersonmoise2841 I do not, no. Need to make one once spring comes around and she’s out and about!

@@JohnWargo93 Look forward to seeing it

Yup, 50% is a safe # for a daily that what we have on the fusion. Truck doesn’t come out much so it’s okay being a little darker 😉

I have 15% all around and thinking about getting my windshield at either 50% or 35%. How are you liking your vehicle after tinting the windshield?

@@vjc25 I ended up going with 35 on the windshield and love it. Any darker and I think it would be hard to drive at night, especially where I'm at without any street lights. The rest of the cabin is fairly dark so the 35 on the windshield is a perfect balance and still makes it hard to see through the windshield from the outside.

I’ve been installing a lot of 70% in the last few years. I prefer 50% but every vehicle can use 70%

This comment helps so much. I have glasses as well and have been debating 70% or 50%. Decided on 50% windshield and 35% on the rest of the windows so should help alot.

I’m currently at a shop getting 50% on the windshield Xpel. I also wear glasses and do night driving at times along with early morning driving. I hope it works out. I didn’t want to dark and the rest of my suv is 20% not to mention I have tan leather so it would make it lighter

How’s the 70% for reducing glare at night guys?

Thank you! And yeah, that would be a pretty good comparison there!

I highly recommend!

Absolutely! Happy to help!

Thank you!

I’d say so.. fast forward to today I bought a 99 corvette and did 35% on the windshield. It’s DARK AF at night! Like, I would not recommend lol. I only did 35% because I knew I would eventually get some fancy nice LED headlights built for the car and I have. They’re on their way thank Jesus!

Agree ☝🏼☝🏼

And then those headlights blind others...

@DeckTM it will soon be yours when I deliberately ram my dually head on with you! Ahh, smiling now at the thought of it!! Can’t wait til we meet!

@@JulioLopez-xz5kxnot true im rocking morimoto xb leds, they have a stepped up cutoff, left side is lower for oncoming traffic and right side it highest for reading signs

Damn dude that’s dark!! That’s awesome 🤘🏼

Yeah but you basically have no visibility at night. Let alone night+raining

Yeah I agree. 5% over 20% is true limo. I ran that setup before I got a ticket and took it off. The cop metered it at 0% haha

I had that on my old truck. Looked cool cus it was impossible to see in even with a flashlight and night, but super dangerous at night worse when it was raining

@@brandonvedella6661 agreed, raining made it harder to see, and i found driving under street lights in residential areas where there are still big dark gaps on the road. in town it was find and in the country i had no issue at night, as your eyes adjust in the pitch black.

​@@cwg2432thank, you answered my question.

Heck yeah man, I have a few friends that will do double 5% on the rear glass. Looks real nice!

That would be terrible! Lol I actually helped my disinter move to Georgia (about an hour south west of Atlanta) last year with the truck. Thankfully no one noticed then 🤣

Didn’t mess with the rear at all. Just the 2 fronts at 20% and the shield at 35%

I highly recommend 🤙🏼

Might have something to do with no tint on the rear window letting in so much light that you can see through the 50% front pretty easily? I have 2 vehicles right now with 50% and they are both fairly dark and you can only see a hand on the steering wheel through them.

Absolutely thank you for the support and kind comment!

Steve at House of Toys! He’s up behind Velozzis past the mall.

I personally enjoy 35%. I have it both on my truck and Corvette now. I always tell guys that if they have any concern about the police to play it safe and go 50% but if they want the full experience go 35%. Knock on wood, I’m 3 years into running fully tinted windshields and travel all over the east coast of the US with no issues.

What did you go with?

My corvette now has 5% rear, 12% sides, and 35% windshield. I keep meaning to remake this video with all the new vehicles but just haven’t gotten time recently. Soon!

​@@JohnWargo93do it bro

I think it does, yes. A lot easier to drive on very bright days and nights with a lot of oncoming traffic.

35% is perfect for the Florida sun!! Make sure you get ceramic tint. The heat blocking is a lot better than standard tint!

@@JohnWargo93 John thanks so much I did not know that. You are a great help🙏👍

⁠@@Recon6hey did you end up doing 35%? I’m planning on my windshield tint and the only options at 35 or 50. I also live in Florida and I think 35 may be way too noticeable from the outside. Don’t wanna be harassed by cops.

Happy to be able to help!!

I’m a fan of it personally because cops can see the stickers clearer so it looks less suspicious and also you don’t have to worry about scratching the tint trying to take the old stickers off to put new ones back on.

Ehhh they definitely turn on earlier than they probably should but I don’t think it’s too crazy

That’s baller! I’m jealous!

@Liams Lexus Build yup

@@MustangChris1 rip

It is, yes. I need to make an update to this video. I now have 2 vehicles either 35% and 1 with 50%. It’s nicer at night in the 2 with 35%

Have a buddy who has that on his 5th Gen. It’s beautiful!

Eh. With 5% sides I’d stick to maybe 50% shield. I think 35% is gonna be stupid dark!

​​@@JohnWargo93 I have 5% all around & 35% windshield, when the sun is really bright (Early mornings/late afternoons) people can still see u through the windshield if you're facing the sun. From the sides they can't see you but they can make out your figure.

No sir, however I am a PA inspection mechanic so I do my own inspections.. but before I got my license, I found a few places that would pass em. Just went in prior asking and made good connections.

Tiint is not an inspected item pa law so they can't fail u for it the only thing they legally have to do is tell u its not legal for the roads and once u leave there its on u I have a medical exempt but still haven't tinted my windshield but am going to remember u take the % u add n times it by the % ur windows r stock thats how u get the real % that it is after u tint them my windshield is 70%stock if I add 70 over it it comes out to 49.2% if I add 86% it registers at 60.2 % and even law enforcement n first responders which in a former first responder law enforcement is exempt but the insurance company's dont tell u even being exempt if u have n accident they don't cover u doesn't matter who u r ur not covered n if u injure somebody because of your view obstruction ur looking at manslaughter cop or no cop I seen it done
