Looking into possibly getting some tint done. Anyone know what Visible Light Transmission percentage (VLT%) the stock tint is on the rear and side rear windows are? Been searching for about an hour now, but cant find anything on it.

Law in WI is

Front Side Windows Must allow more than 50% of light in.
Back Side Windows Must allow more than 35% of light in.
Rear Window Must allow more than 35% of light in.

So Im guessing they are around 35% maybe less?

Thanks for any help.

toyota factory smoked glass is 28% and yes 35 matches it real good.

IMO 35% does not match very well...... 20% will be almost a perfect match but illegal in some states.

KK thanks all - WI tint laws blow :(

and P.S.
Hwybox I also have TCM and yours looks very nice. Like the rims, tint, and bra very much. Maybe next summer ill throw some nice rims on, but not worth it now that old man winter is on the way.
