Privacy glass?
 
hey, any of you guys tinted your privacy glass? I find the privacy glass is so light now. Make me feel like I don't have privacy at all.

Lot's of members have tinted the privacy glass. Make sure you use a ceramic based tint. Metallic tint may interfere with the electronics.

35% all round, looks great - not too dark - slight darker grading to the rear compared to the front windows.

Cheers,

I tinted my front, side and rear windows on top of factory privacy glass since I noticed the same problem. The guys did a great job getting the front slightly darker than the original tint in the back and matching it afterwards. If I remember correctly they did it 45% in the front. Not sure what they used in the back.

Thanks also. Is this a new thing with any trucks now? that they can't use darker tint?
