2004 LS430 sport suspension , I am think of getting a light tint put on my windshield. Just checking on any issues that would make it a problem on this car beside it being illegal ??

 

there really shouldn't be any, Ive got it on my front as well!

 

here is mine tinted, i dont have any problems with it

 

Taz, what is the little antenna on the right top of your windshield?

 

I also have it. There shouldn't be an issue unless you go too dark. I have 20% on the rest of the windows and 35% on my front. I probably would have went 15% on the sides but it was already tinted when I bought the car. I wouldn't go much darker than 35% on the windshield.

 

Nice . thats what im talkin about . That looks dark , what % is that ??

 

damn u guys r crazy, how do u c anything at night or especialy in the rain at night. i have enough fun trying to see where im goin and i have 15% on the sides and rear and nothin up front lol.

Topshottaz u cant tell me that uv never gotten pulled over for those tints here in ny lol.

 

I think i am going with 50% tint on the front windshield, 35% looked way to dark. Then at night it will be a little darker ,

 

It's not just the darkness that makes it more difficult to see, it's the reflectivity of the film. Unless the film is one-quarter of the wavelength of light in thickness, light will reflect off the surface, making it more difficult to see. This is how anti-reflective optical coatings work. In most states, it's illegal to have window tint on the windshield below the AS1 line.

 

Wow I am a geezer so I already have problems at night seeing out of the regular windshield in the dark - particularly in rain and bad weather, etc.

I do understand tinting the other windows/glass to achieve a look but I don't understand tinting the windshield - making it even harder/darker to see at night so the car can look cool. Not a great idea.

Good thing nobody wants to pimp their airplane windshield. It would be pretty exciting landing at night in the rain with a cool looking tint on the windshield.

 

The tint on my windshield helps a lot with glare from the sun. I hardly ever have to wear my sunglasses anymore. It's obviously a little harder to see out at night but not bad.
