Tinting My Windows, Need Advice!
Hey guys, I am looking at getting my windows tinted and was wondering what you guys have as far as how dark, which windows, if its normal to apply tint to the windshield(does it affect the HUD?), and price. I have never done this before so tips would be greatly appreciated

I'm not from Wisconsin but I would check what the local laws are where you live. I think the website is tintlaws.com. How far you choose to push it from "the law" is up to you.

I'm not too worried as far as the law, but that was an interesting site. Thanks!

I believe you need to use a ceramic tint as regular tint with metallic in it will interfere with the radio signal.

The law may concern you if they enforce it. I have legal Virginia limits with a 15% strip top windshield.
Wi is the same as VA, 50% 35% 35%, front sides to rear, with windshield only to the AS-1 line |

i just had mine done this past weekend. i went with 35% on the sides and rear and it looks great any darker and it would be really hard to see at night and any lighter would not have that tinted look. havent taken any pics yet but 35 is perfect.

20% or darker is the best way to go

I have "dark" all around and "light" on my windshield.. I'm not sure of the % but I love it. I highly reccomend tinting the whole windshield. Check out my pics.
