Tints
Looking for a shop to do the tints on my car.
I've always done 5% on my trucks, which is nice, but I'm not sure if I want to go that dark on this car. I'm more concerned about being able to see everything I need to. With it being 5%, it may make these blind spots worse than they already are.
Suggestions on local shops and tint %?

35% all the way around is legal in IL now,
Public Act 096-0815
Effective 10/30/2009
35% Front/35% Rear - or - 50% Front/30% Rear
UNDER 30% ON ANY REAR WINDOW MAKES IT ILLEGAL TO TINT IN FRONT (unless vehicle is classified "MPV" and has privacy glass - 50% Front).

I went with Greg Weiss in Aurora. He did my 78 rear window in one piece and no bubbles.
