So guys, being the novice I am, are you saying you only tint the side and rear hatch windows, not the windshield? Seems to me most of the heat comes through the windshield, but the again I'm a novice.

That is correct. Sides and back, usually with the back darker than the sides, because the law allows it that way. And then you get used to parking in such a way as to minimize front window exposure. Oh, and I have never been concerned in the least with the tint law in any state but my home state.

What a timely post! Mines a coupe with the optional tinted transparent top, and since moving south from New England I feel I need tinted windows to deal with sun heat. I never thought tinted windows were an appearance enhancement, but after seeing your pictures I'm convinced they are. I may just do the windshield and side windows since I'm cheap, and the hatch window already affords limited rearward visibility. Question: How did they treat the dot matrix on your windshield?

Please " NO COP BASHING PLEASE " I respect all State police and the job they do for us. I want to stay legal according to Maryland Laws with this car and color I know all State Police ( any State ) will take a second look as they pass or setting on the side of the road, but thanks for the suggestion on halo's. What I like about Delaware tint law compared to Maryland is, in Delaware you fill out a application for tint waiver and it is put on record so if a officer pulls behind you and runs your tag it will come up on his screen that you have a tint waiver, in Maryland it does not, so they can pull you over and only then you show the officer your tint waiver.
I wasn't cop bashing (i am a certified cop).
Do you know what the halo and top are?
