Do 25% all the way around, not to dark. I think it's perfect. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

Yep. You can tint anything behind the driver's head.
I would reconsider getting the sides tinted. I got pulled over a bunch of times for having tint and I eventually got a fix it ticket and had to pay to have it takend off ![[Frown]](frown.gif)
PITA IMO

I always found that having limo on the back was too dark looking out the back at night, and was a bitch backing out of places with little to low light at night.
I have always had a shade lighter than limo on the back windows (rear window and sides) and a shade lighter (2 shades lighter than limo) than that on the drivers and passenger.
Thats the best set up imo.

hatchbacks have cargo covers in them stock, lol.
I have limo on the back 3 of my coupe and it's really bad to have to back up or parallel park at night.

It really depends on how much light is coming into the car through the windshield. At night you still wont be able to see in the car. During the day u may be able to make out shadows but you would have to look real close. (face up to the window kinda thing).
But if u park under a street light, with light getting in through your windshield or something it will make it easier to see whats in the car.
