I wouldn't go lower than 35%, I got pulled over by Federal Way police for illegal window tinting for 35%. Cop wasn't very friendly at all, he had a tintmeter gun on his motorcycle. He told me to look up the law because I always thought 35% was legal, I did and he lost in court.
The 35% is for the film measured against clear glass, the true light transmission on vehicle glass is 24%, the tintmeter gun measured 27% thus meaning the factory glass has a glazing of approx. 8%.
I've had alot of cars in my life and this car gets hassled easily the most out of them all, I've lost alot of respect for law enforcement.

Ditto - I've lost all respect for them. They were pulling you over for tint while real crime was going on. They're nothing but revenue generators for the city. I recently called Kent Police because my neighbors are selling drugs but they could care less. One of the reasons I took my wing off. Although I've gotten pulled over for my exhaust and no front plate more than a few times, I'm not changing anything else on my car for them.

I think 20% is pretty safe. Most cops wont bother with it. Like I said, I run 5% and I drive by/next to cops every day and I have yet to be stopped souly for my tint.
