I just got 20%, and wish I had gotten 5.

When I bought the car they showed me ceramic tint which really helped keep your car cooler, but they didn't have it when I got mine done.

Always been illegal for over 10 years, but my girlfriend got a ticket last week in BFE.

If you're not worried about tickets get 20% all around. Otherwise 35% Front, 15% - 20% Rear. My setup is the latter and it looks really dark most of the time except in bright mid-day sunlight then it looks a little light.

IMHO I would either go all the way 5% or dont tint at all. If you go 15, 20, etc you will never think its dark enough. My car has 5% on front/rear and 35% on the windshield and it looks very clean.

I've got 20% and I think it's plenty dark enough.
Are there police where you live? If I drove with 35 (or even 50) on the windshield I would most certainly be stopped by the police, within a few days. I pass by police just about every day on my way to work.

Uh.... Ya I live in Phoenix and there's police everywhere. They have undercover taxis, minivans, chargers, silverados, f150s... you name it. Technically they can pull you over for anything darker than 35%. And no 50% is legal on the windshield actually. The chances of a police officer saying, "hey your windshield is 35 and not 50," is VERY slim. 35% windshield tint isnt noticeable at all to other people. I used to have 35% on all windows and it was a clean set up but like I said, either you go dark or dont tint at all which is why I went 5%.
