I have had all three of my CTD's done with 5% tint and it looks awesome.

5% Lumar Tint all around with a windshield brow (on my Quad Cab) cost me $180 from a local tint shop. Mine also has a solid rear window, might be a little more if you have a slider. It cost me $200 on my 3rd Gen Quad Cab and it had a sliding rear window.

I agree, and if you drive the truck alot, it is going to be hard to see out at night!! I have a buddy with 5%, and you cant see anything at night....so think about it. I know it looks good, and I want to do 20% around, but wouldnt go darker than that.

Yeah it is hard to see out of at night...sometimes, like backing up . But it is really worth it to me for helping to block the sun out on hot days and keeping truckers from blinding me while on the highway at night.

im tired of people trying to see what and who all i have up in the cab...so i just it to be impossible to see up in there

and its not all that tough to see at night. I was in my friends titan last night and it was still possible to see. But as far as backing up goes, I already have too stick my head out the window because my reverse lights dont work 99% of the time

I say 200 is too expensive. There is a plave here that does it for 120 for every window plus 20 for an eyebrow. I agree with Diesel_Nuts, 20% is enough. My dad has 5% all the way around and he can not see at night. He hates it, but the truck came with it. I am doing 35% on my entire windshield with a 20% eyebrow to help cut out to sunlight. This should darken it up enough in the cab to where no one will be able to see in.

Well good luck to you if you still want to go that dark!! Maybe you can see, but I know I havent been able to in trucks that dark. My truck is too high to do it, so I am gonna go with 20%.

5% tint isnt hard to see out of its just something you have to get used to. At one point in time i had 2 layers of 5% all around now that was dark!!
