Lets face it, tinted windows are a mixed bag. Great for privacy,
especially during the day. Great for keeping the sun at bay in the
desert and summer travels with the AC on. Great for keeping prying eyes
from seeing stuff to rip off. Great to reduce headlight glare from the
rear. Bad for backing up at night or in parking garage. Bad for night
driving in general. Bad for off season camping when you need all the
light and heat from the sun as you can get. My last van had tinted
windows. I can't remember what the percentage of tint was, but I think
the back 5 windows had film that was slightly lighter than limo and the
front two had the lightest tint. My current van does not have any tint
and I have no plans to do that. Sure, there are times when I wish the
tint was there, especially when it's baking in my driveway during the
summer. That's when I try to keep the van covered and the sun from
damaging the interior as much. Be nice if it fit into the garage :-(
