I think the tint on the back windows of the tahoe is perfect. But i want the same thing done to the two front windows, If I take the windows to be tinted at a custom shop, do you think they would be able to perfectly match it? Or would I have to re-tint all of the windows to match?

 

Yes they can match the front side windows (which already have some tint). Check your state laws on how much is legal. The back window tint would not be allowedon the side windows in a lot of states. Most custom shops won't put illegal tint on around here.

 

20% matches the rear windows well ..if you look close at the writing on the rear wide windows, it actually says what the exact VLT is...i think its 21 or 22%

 

Remember that the front may have 70% on it already, so you won't get the same effect if you put 20% on top of that.

 

i dont think the fronts have anything on them (other than clear UV protection). I installed 20% and it matched the rears. Go check your fronts and see if they are labeled with a VLT rating.

 

ok, i'll check. I've already looked around on the window for a sticker or something before and I never saw a percentage or VLT rating. Also, for those of you who do have your front windows tinted, do the cops give you a hard time about it? I know that its one of those laws that usually isn't very enforced at all, but every once in a while you will get a cop who feels like giving you a hard time. But that is usually when there is a limo tint or something on the front windows.

 

I blacked all my windows down to 3%. I got pulled over last weekon alligator alley by some rookie state trooper for the tint. The ticket was $71.50. I don't have to take the tint off. Just risk getting another ticket. I have had this same setup on all my cars for the last 10 years, this is my first ticket. I won't take off the tint. Looks too good with the black hoe.

 

Fronts are 70% transmission and rears are 16%.

 

i have 20 % tint on front and it looks good~

 

anyone got some pics of their tint? post what percentage it is also
