John Cena Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 So I have a 2013 Ford Edge SEL, and my Edge came with rear tinted windows from the factory and I was wondering if any of you guys knows the percentage of the factory window tint? I am asking because I am planning to tint all 3 front windows the same tint as the rear tint. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacyon Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I think that they're 35% to comply with various state laws. Also, when you go to get them tinted, when you tell them "make them match "X" windows, they'll use a light meter so they know. As soon as the communist state of Illinois passed front side windows getting tinted, I had a local shop match the rears. Looks so much better. I also had them install a "safety film" to another window. Its clear but, it blocks nearly 98% IR.UV light from outside hitting the dash. HUGE difference in heat levels. Much cooler now.

The rear will meter 22-24% so a tad bit darker on the fronts, that makes up for all the light coming thru the windshield. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
