Son's considering a light tint on the '87's rear windows

As I get older, I find tint too difficult to see out of at night- even dark
days.  We went with Temptrol. It is a silver fabric my wife sewed to the
outside of our curtains.  Reflective, excludes light-black out in broad
daylight, adds some insulation for cool weather and keeps interior much
cooler in hot sunlight.  Here's a link.  Reasonably priced IMHO.
