Do your homework. And yes, he was given all the info and chose to spend more attention to Monica than Bin Ladin. Very sad indeed......It is very clear that 9/11 could have been avoided if Clinton would have been doing his job.

He had top intelligence that he chose to ignore.........This is fact, not my opinion. Read all about it.....this has all been well documented. Have you not read this yet? It's several years old.......

I did 35 on the front sides and 20 on the rear around. Even though 35 is the limit in my state, I've never had any problem. The front windows being lighter is the key, the cops don't freak out because they can see inside at 35 when they approach. Tint that is 20 and less is tougher to see into and get's them on edge. My input, get good quality tint that doesnt' turn purple due to cheap dye.

On a Truck or SUV you can go as dark as you want on the rear sides and back window. This really doesn't make sense to me since you have more room in a truck or SUV.

It sucks here in cali with the tint laws, so I'm just looking for something to keep the UV and some heat out.
I have 50% and it's perfect. If you want to reject heat, then forget metallic tints and go ceramic like I did. I have the Huper Optik Ceramic 50 in Gray. It's more money, but it offers double the heat rejection vs. metallics, and the UV protection does not degrade over time vs. metallics. Also, it won't intefere with the radar detector.

As far as dark tints go, I don't like the look (too 80's for me) and not as safe as it obstructs outward visbility especially at night.

i thought there was no limit to tinting rear windows for california....
as for the fronts, 70% allowed if you got a doctor's note (aka special circumstances)....

one window tint website has a pdf of state tint laws....sorry, forgot which....

that's correct, no limit in the rear for CA (that's what i posted above). you can black them out to 0 if you wanted to.

the front varies. my understanding is that with a doctor's note it can be as dark as your note approves, if you have a skin condition, for example.

It's 70% up front and anything for the rest provided you have side mirrors, read it on the CHP site. I just called up my tint shop and confirmed they had 50% tint. I'll post some pics after getting it done on saturday.

Also here is the link to the 50% tint I saw on a bmw:
50% tint on 3 series

The dot matrix looks bad though...

Also remember interior color has a quite an impact on how dark your tint will look. I have wheat with 35% and my friend has black with 35% and it looks much darker.
