Thinking about having my front windshield professionally tinted down to about the rear view mirror. Curious to hear peoples opinion that have this done to their ranger or car.

 

If it is legal its one thing, if its not its another. But it is hard to see at night with it. Depending on how dark you go its like wearing sunglasses at night.

 

I love it on my truck. Really helps when you're driving into the sun early in the morning or in the evening. Keep in mind that your visibility at night won't be quite as good though. I'll see if I can get some pics from inside my truck sometime this weekend.

 

you mean the AS1 line? then it wont effect night driving at all guys lol

do it, its nice for long day trip and keep the truck cooler temp wise

 

Didn't read the whole post. lol

 

I wasn't talking about the AS1 line, that's way too far up the windshield to do any good lol Mine is down to where the rear view is mounted to the windshield.

 

I wanna go down to where the rear view is mounted. I wanna put this sticker on.

 

I read the entire post lol its 1 sentence ha but the rear view is the as1 on mine? Maybe a centimeter off

 

My tint goes down to where the mirror is mounted, and it's right at 3 inches past the AS1 line. It's kinda hard to see in the pics, but I did the best I could with a cell phone lol

OP, if you want some day or night shots from the inside, I can get you those too. Just let me know.


Best I can get of the AS1 line. I circled it so it's easier to find lol


Measuring


Showing how it lines up with the mirror


Best shot I have right now showing it all from the outside

 

Nice truck, Justin.

 

Is it legal to tint that far down where you live?

 

I just have the ENTIRE windshield done 35% It's like wearing sunglasses and at night its not bad at all. Windshield appears PITCH black

 

Thanks Kris! Technically, the tint is only supposed to go down to the AS1 line, but so many people here (including the cop cars) have it as far down as mine so no one ever gets in trouble for it.

 

Yeah, that would be my only concern for the OP.

 

it's the wheels that sold you isn't it? i see you

 

Mine went with the truck. Justin bought his own. I do like them though. :)

 

i didn't mean literally, i means it the wheels that sold you on liking his truck.... since they are the same wheels you picked out for yours.

 

Yeah, I thought you meant I sold him those wheels.

 

If it wasn't the wheels, it was the tires lol

He did sell me the Cortex he had for that truck though. Still got it

 

That truck does look good Justin.

 

Thanks Adam! I have some more ideas up my sleeve for it, but not sure if I want to go through with them yet... I know it'll look really good with a new set of gauges in it lol

 

Oh btw I sent out those gauges today, I will PM the tracking in a bit.

 

Sweet! I wasn't sure if you'd be able to do it today with it being President's Day and all.

 

Fedex FTW.

 

Your ranger is amazing! What percent tint do you have up front on the windsheild? I really like they way that looks.

Dave, Im not to sure about doing the whole window. I don't think i would like driving at night.
