If you have white interior and tinted windows can you please post a photo of what it looks like from this angle and what % your tint is.

Trying to see how bad the white reflection will be on the side windows if I do 5-10% on the side windows.

Forgot 45 or 55% Somewhere in that range. Did not actually notice the reflection while driving until that picture taken.
Checked the invoice, it was 35%.

I had wanted 25% films but my installer talked me into doing 15%, and I'm so glad I listened to him. The white interior is really bright so a dark tint brings it to a level where the car looks just right to my eyes.
Photos were taken at full sun at noon.

I think Lexus got it right--I don't really see a major reflection like the Teslas. Perhaps as the white on the Lexus dash is a bit lower.

and yeah @Petlizard ....prolly gonna have to do 5-10% here!
