i hjust bought an indash dvd player and i currently do not have an alarm system, the indash is detachble so i figuire it will look more hidden that i have an indash with tints, i dont want dark tints cause idont want to get pulled over all the time, what is a good percentage??? and also the weather is getting cold, is cold weather a bad time 2 get tints??

 

Tint percentage is different in every state almost, some it's illegal all together. I have always used 15 to 20% on almost every application. If you don't want to go too dark 20-25% is pretty nice, anything up to 30% will still be decent, anything over that starts to look like you don't even have tint. 5% is "limo" tint I believe, its the worst, hard to see in and hard to see out, but looks cool. It would get you pulled over faster then anything. I would shoot for something 20-30%.

 

yea i was thinking 25 percent, but now some of my friends tell me 2 wait cause they say since the weather is cold the tints will not come out properly, is this tru???

 

Yes, If you have a heated garage its one thing, but tint needs to set properly, at least 24 to 48 hours before you even think about rolling down the window.

It would probably be a good idea to hold off till the ambient temp is around 60* F or so. It may take longer to dry properly any lower then that.

 

well if i get it done proffessionally where they have a heated garage, does it matter or will the tints not settle properly if it is taken outside in the cold after the heated garage?

 

This thread is the exact same as this one now..
