tint question

hey i just had my tints installed last week which were 20 percent all around on a wdp with ebony interior. my question is why is it sometimes when i look at my car the front two windows seems lighter than the rear windows, im guessing its the sun. is there a way to eliminate this?

The angle of the sun coming through the front window is whats doing it.

I think its because there is no tint in the front windshield, whereas in the rear, it is also tinted. Therefore, there is more light in front whereas it is darker in the back.

I wouldn't recommend tinting the front windshield though. It's illegal. Just park facing the opposite direction of the sun.

you can tint a strip on the top of the windsheild. i reduces some light comming in so its a little darker.. and its legal

i think hes referring to the front seat windows vs rear seat windows... it is kinda hard to not notice that your front window isnt tinted and your rear is

Huh? Im saying it DOES look lighter on the FRONT SEAT WINDOWS (whatever that means) because there is no tint on the windshield so light comes in and the front is generally more "well lit" by sun than the backseat.

But of course YOU wouldnt know since you cant pull the trigger on tint
