The Aus version comes with 35% light transmission(our darkest legal tint). It has 80% heat blocking and 93% UV blocking.
It protects us from the sun pretty well, which means we get to focus more on all of the flora and fauna that's constantly trying to kills us ;-)
I had my front windows done in 20% ... it's really close to the rears ... testing showed it turned out to be 24% ... so they are a little darker then the back and rear ... but really hard to till.
I'm googling and trying to understand this better. Say the meter shows 28 on the rear and +/-3, it could be 30. This is called a "VTL" level when picking tints, right?
The link says for FL "No vehicle’s side windows may be tinted with a material that has a total solar reflectance of visible light of not more than 25% and a light transmittance of at least 28% in the visible light range."
So, FL VTL side windows must be 28% or higher, right? Factory side windows at max. When people say they did "20% tint to match" are they referencing the VTL and if yes, wouldn't this be illegal in FL?
Next part of FL section in link says "The windows behind the driver may not be tinted with a screening material consisting of film that has a total solar reflectance of not more than 35% and a light transmittance of less than 15% in the visible light range;"
Are they saying the TSER (% TOTAL SOLAR ENERGY REJECTION) must be under 35? The double "not's" are confusing me as well.
