and windshield tint isn’t legal everywhere. Even if the shop does it and says it’s fine, double check the law first.

Watch out on windshield tint as its not legal everywhere, definitely impacts night driving if you go dark and is a major red flag to the police if your area is one where they have tint hawks out at all hours

Make sure you check your state tint law so you don't end up paying for a tint job only to have to pay to have it removed and a lighter tint installed. A lot of states don't allow tinted windshields (except for the top 4-6").
