Your opinions on tint
Hey all,
Finally getting around to tinting my windows in the X5 tomorrow. I can't believe the previous owner didn't have it done, as it's a necessity here in Texas.
Anyway, my last car had 35% on the fronts and 5% on all three back windows, which is legal here in TX (as far as I know, anyway). I liked how cool it kept the car and all that, but I didn't like how difficult it made seeing out the back at night when backing up. Fortunately that car had a backup camera.
My X5 doesn't have one (I won't even go in to how ridiculous it is that a backup camera isn't standard on a $70k vehicle), so I'm tentative about the darkness of the tint. I'm not getting 5%, I know that much. Does anybody have 20%, though? Is that still too dark to see out of at night? My options really come down to 35% or 20% and I am concerned 35% won't work as well as I'd like. Thoughts?
