Unless you live in California, go illegal. I've rode around with illegal tints from day one and many different cars. Never had a problem. Even getting pulled over for other things. Yeah there is a chance the cop might be an @sshat and cite you. So pay the fine and move on. Chances are it won't happen again. If you get sketched out riding next to a cop 1. MAP lights on or 2. Roll em down.

I'd do 5% - 20% for real privacy. I have 15% and couldn't be happier. Driving around at night, especially in the rain is the scariest thing though as visibility is greatly reduced. I couldn't even imagine 5% at night.

Strongly agree with the above.

I paid about $300 for a tint from Formula one - Pinnacle series. The shop had a display with a wheel (sorta like a colour wheel) with different types of tints on it and a bright hot light above shining on it, you could really feel with your hand underneath the wheel the difference between the tints.

I couldn't be happier with it.
