Re: Question about window tinting (bill mcdonald)
I think you can get away with a small strip at the top like the factory tint. Obviously you wouldn't want to do the entire windshield :D
If your glass is covered under your insurance you can allways have an "accident" :blueangel:
You may have to pay the difference to get the top tint version but.....

Re: Question about window tinting (corvette-pilot)
You can tint the winsheild. They have films now that are UV blocking that have no shading, 100% light transmitting just no UVs get through.just get closest thing.
The rear hatch is not too difficult. I did my 84. put film on outside and wet cling to window, trim it close but leave a slight over hang. Heat it gently to conform. Remove the hatch and prep it good(defroster lines are a biotch). It is easy to do on the floor with hatch upside down and no struts on it. Be super careful torquing the struts back on youll twist up the tint.
