35% on the front sides and limo on all the others....limo is a little dark for me so i suggest 5% on the back if you dont have any factory tint. If you have factory tint in the rear just have them go over it with the 35%.

I have 32% on the driver/passanger side windows, 6% on the 1/4 back windows, and 12% on the rear slider(the rear slider is already tinted a little so 12% on it was the same as 6% on the non tinted 1/4 windows) Dont ahve any pics but it'll look just like Greg's

i got 5 on back 15 on driver and passenger doors and i can see fine out the 15 atleast not so much the 5 though. the only problem i had seeing out 15 is parking space lines at night but once my lights hit them i could see. You have to keep in mind you sit up higher in a truck which makes it easier to see then in a lower car also the back window is straight up and down which makes it easier to see than a cars which is on an angle
