In Arizona you can tint the side windows with 65% tint (passes 35% of the light).  Only a strip
across the top is allowed on the windshield.  Behind the driver you can use anything you want.
I have the very dark limo tint (5% of light gets through) on my Westy.  Nobody can see in
during the day, which makes using the Porta Potti a lot less shocking to nearby folks.  Metalic
films don't go purple.
