That's crazy cheap for top quality windshield tint. I know I'm paying a premium @ NCM - $500

No offense intended but you must be stuck in the year 2000! The material alone for an entire car cost about $800 - $1000 then add the labor you’re talking $3000 - $5000 to do the entire car depending on the shop and quality of material.

tint is not gonna affect the forward looking safety features. you're not really gonna get tint film wayyyyy up in there between the sensors and the glass. that stuff is way up in there and not really within the scope of the area which is covered by the tint itself.
get some 80% ceramic and carry on.

I just recently had the front windshield tinted 80% ceramic. At night I now see triple halos from lights. This is not the first vehicle I have tinted the front windshield, but never experienced before. Anyone experience this?

How long as the film cured for? If it's been over a week, then you likely have an issue and they should redo it. If it's been under a week, let it sit out in the sunlight for a day and see if that helps any.
