Window Tint
I am planning to have my windows tinted. What should I be looking for as far as percentage of tint. I want to make sure the percentage is legal so that I don't get pulled over. I live in Florida. Is there anything esle I need to make sure it is done right. I also want to have a visor tint on the front windshielf. Any advise will be most appreciated

I picked the tint with the greatest heat blocking rating - 58% heat reduction. 3M's Black Chrome" works. It is also legal here with a fairly moderate tint color.
Good luck

I live in Florida too.
Any reputable shop will give you a certificate showing the legality of your tint. Carry it in the glove box, in case police question it.
You should also get a lifetime warranty. Standard with any good tint.
You should also get a non-metallic tint if you plan to use a radar detector. I went with ceramic tint.
See my profile garage, and you will see what the max tint in Florida looks like in my pics.
