With new seals, no problem.  With the one that had the old seals I did get a scratch up the window as I rolled it up and down.  It’ll just depend on the condition of your inside window seals.

I've used the Llumar window tint on a couple vans so far and noticed a big increase in the ability for the AC to cool them.  It still seems to get just as hot when parked, but the seats, wheel, dash etc seem to be cooler on contact and the AC cools it down faster.  I do have them put an 8 inch strip across the top of the windshield too.

I find that surprising, The first thing I do is tint my windows. It seems to make a huge difference to me. As well as adding some privacy to your camper.

I just paid a lot of money to have the windows tinted on my Ford 
camper, including the front windshield with the ceramic film that's 
supposed to reduce heat. It has not done a damn thing, it's a waste of 
money. I'd like to know if anyone else has  had a different experience 
with this film Thanks Jeff

Consider White, 70/30 perf on your windows and more importantly 
Llumar ceramic film on your cockpit glass for glare AND heat.  If 
you do add AC later it will work better with both.
