yeah im really considering it myself what % do u guys have?

Mine is particularly dark. Very close to 100% blockage (you can only see in my car with your face right up to the rear window). I don't see why anyone would want anything less dark if you're going to go through the trouble of tinting.

any one know that link that shows how much it cost to drive per mile i forgot to save the page

Oh yeah, I also forgot about the fact that I have pretty dark tint. I do EOC, but not very often because of the fact that I can't bump start like I would be able to do with a stick and there are no hills to coast down. I only EOC in a few places where I live where I know of routinely long lights. I also EOC down a bridge in my area and about 1.5 miles down the road. People always get pissed at me at the end of that EOC when I'm about to make my left. By the time I get to there I'm going about 30 mph in a 45 in the fast lane.

Need to check your state laws. In Texas 30% darkness for non reflective is the darkest you can use.

Don't know. I bike most of the time and only need to fill up for trips which normally are 120-150 miles each way. I do alot of business on the other side of the state and need to drive over there at least once a month it seems.

I just fill it up when I get there and fill it up again when I get back.

in IL its 20% but mines 5% and i hate it for havign to back up at night. cant see @#^%# but i only have the rear window tinted on my truck and the rear windows on my chevette.
legal issues. cuz in IL you cant have any tint on the windshiels (except a 6" strip accros the top) or front side windows.

3 words: beaded seat cover.



I got caught in traffic one really hot & humid summer day in Toronto about 6 years ago and aimed straight for the nearest auto parts store. A driving instructor I knew swore by them, so I thought: why not?

I now call it "my air conditioning". Still have it. Used it last summer in the Blackfly. Not sticking to your seat does wonders for your comfort level.

PS I found the best combo of windows in my Accord was to crack open the front & rear window on the passenger side. Set up a nice swirl in the car that had air coming at me from behind the driver's seat.
