New iQ owner, question about window tint
Hi all - I'm new here. I just bought a new 2012 iQ this afternoon (silver) and I'll be picking it up next week.
Newbie question: I want to get the windows tinted, but unsure how dark I should go. If I get it done at Scion (in order to get the cost of the tinting worked into my monthly payments), is there a % of tint that they'll want to do?
Thoughts and advice on this would be much appreciated. Thanks!

A lot of the decision is dependent upon where you have the car licensed. Different states have different maximums of percentage that are permitted, and (I understand) some states have different levels permitted on rear windows, rear side windows, and front side windows.
Research what your state allows, and then proceed from there. Also, it's unlikely that the dealership will do anything other than what is absolutely permitted.

This is incorrect; as I have purchased two new vehicles in a three year time span and I had the option of choosing illegal/legal tint based on Arizona state law. The dealer will have multiple options of window tint; some options are legal, some options are illegal. I would advise you to go with what your state law entails regarding tint; however, it is your decision and your preference. The dealer should have no problem advising you what is legal vs. illegal in your state.

My buddy just got popped on the freeway by the CHP, the guy said it was dangerous. Let's not lie Mr. Officer, it's more an issue of revenue generation...
