Yes, as a matter of fact it is as clear as someone with a 20% tint during the day.

Of course you will have limited visibility during the night as with any tint.

The Quantum just reflected the light from the outside. But inside your car, you could see perfectly clear during cloudy days and sunny days.

I tried so many tints before and I found this tint to be the best.

The moonroof is already tinted from factory, so no need to tint it any darker. Enjoy the sunlight!

Question Tinted Windows????

I have a new 08 TL-Type S. I want to Tint my windows. MA allows 35%. However the dealer told me that they have nothing but problems with the window regulators failing on cars with Tinted Windows due to the tight tolorances inside the door. Then there is the well documented Scratching- ( use Mole skin as recommended from this site). I am concerned with regulator failure and losing the warranty. The dealer will not recommend any tint even from them.

Dilemma? Looks Great!!! New Car Warranty issues
Suffer failure and out of pocket costs?
What everyones experience out there?

Don't know what percentage as it was pre-owned and came that way. But it's very dark. People always tell me they can't see me at all when I'm inside. Also, I find it a little hard to see stuff going on around and behind me at night. Especially in the rear-view mirror with auto tint on.

Does anyone know what is consider legal for the front door windows? (for CA)

I just told the dealership to put 20% tint on my back 5 windows, but now thinking i may want something on the front door windows so its not super contrasting. I have Black with Taupe.
