They make one way window screens for houses, why don't they make window tint that you can see out of at night time? I have to roll with the windows down at night which means no ac either.
I have contacts. I can see out of the windshield, just not through the side windows. I mean you can it's just not really safe imo. I'm pretty sure it's 5 percent all around excluding the windshield of courseI have 5% and don’t have to roll my windows down. How dark is your tint? Do you need glasses maybe?
I have the same, 5 all the way around except windshield. Are you new to the tint? It takes getting used to.I have contacts. I can see out of the windshield, just not through the side windows.

Looks like they make ceramic tint that fixes this problem. I tow trailers and you can't drive around not being able to see the trailer back there. This truck is new to me, so I'd assume it's got some el cheapo tintI have the same, 5 all the way around except windshield. Are you new to the tint? It takes getting used to.
I’ve had 5% for about 20years now and haven’t rolled a window down to see better in many of those years and I’ve only ran over a handful of pedestrians.
My other truck is supposed to have 25 percent IIRC which is the legal limit, but honestly to me it's not much different than just not having any at all. I almost question if the guy was out at the time and just gave me what he had.Mirror film, you can see out but not in… until night time. It will definitely draw attention if put on a vehicle due to how reflective it is.
5% is ridiculously dark though… our 300 had 5% on the back windows when we bought it and same problem, almost impossible seeing out of it at night. Had it ripped off and replaced with 20%, much much better.
35% is easy to seevout of at nightThey make one way window screens for houses, why don't they make window tint that you can see out of at night time? I have to roll with the windows down at night which means no ac either.
Just get rid of it. Is 5% even legal where you live? Those of us over the age of about 25 remember when they used to enforce tint laws. Apparently not anymore based on some of the cars I see around where I live.I'm pretty sure it's 5 percent all around excluding the windshield of course
It was just last year that VA made tint not a "primary pull" reason. Since then, the black spray painted window car population has exploded, even tinting the windshields now.Just get rid of it.

That could be it. I’ve always used well regarded shops and spring for the ceramic.Looks like they make ceramic tint that fixes this problem. I tow trailers and you can't drive around not being able to see the trailer back there. This truck is new to me, so I'd assume it's got some el cheapo tint
Is that the shiny stuff the other poster mentioned?That could be it. I’ve always used well regarded shops and spring for the ceramic.
No. That shiny stuff isn't legal anymore.Is that the shiny stuff the other poster mentioned?
What percentage? Can you tell if it's ceramic? My other truck is 25 percent and it's been on those windows for probably 12 years with no issues. The only time I have issues not seeing is out on country back roadsView attachment 172083
This is legal ceramic tint. No issues seeing out at might.
This was installed at a shop Mercedes uses. No, you can't tell by looking at it that it's ceramic. I trust the installer put on the correct material.What percentage? Can you tell if it's ceramic?
