RE: Window Tint?
actually 70% is the law in CA. i guess thats how the Tahoe gets away with the slight tint in the front windows.

The funny thing is in California, clear is legal. You can technically have NO tint on the front windows or it's illegal.

CA has more laws than every other state on just about everything, so I am not surprised that the front windows cant have any tints worth a damn.
One word of advice for those with dark tints. If you do get pulled over at night, turn on your dome lights. Most Cops will appreciate being able to see in your vehicle as they appraoch and may be more likely to cut you a break.

LOL, 15% cant be perfect. The math shows it isnt the exact same. With 15% on fronts it makes net of 10.5%, with 20% it would make it 14%. So 20% would be a closer match! However, it is probably close enough that the untrained eye cant tell a difference!

RE: Window Tint?
So you are telling me that when I look at my Tahoe that does have the front windows tinted that I dont know what I'm talking about, however you who does not have tint on the front windows has a trained eye. Not to mention my trained tint guy who has been doing it for a long time told me that the best match would be to get 15%.

LMAO, I never said I have a trained eye! However, my windows have tint on them, and so do yours from the factory! 70% front factory tint! 16% tint on the rears!
.70 x .15 = 10.5% 10.5% is what your fronts are as we speak! Your rears are 16% from the factory!
.70 x .20 = 14% This would be the closer match to factory rears at 16% from the factory.
I wasnt trying to be an ***, i was just stating a fact for anyone that did want the closest to factory match! I am sure it looks great and that most people, including myself would never be able to tell the difference!
