Hello!
This is really more of a general question, but since I plan to (someday) do this to my truck and this is the board with by far the most traffic on this site, I hope the powers that be will allow it to stay for a while
As those who've met me face to face are well aware of, I'm a penguin who can't tolerate heat...68* F is my upper comfort limit, and I'm sweating like a pig and hating life anywhere above 72* F. As such, I want to do everything I can to keep the interiors of both my truck and the car I'm hoping to purchase as cool as possible, and I'm hoping that getting the windows tinted will help reduce the greenhouse effect and keep the interior from becoming an oven. Does anyone know what tint film would be best to keep the sun/UV rays out?
Also, for those of you in California (and especially in the CA law enforcement community, or any LEO for that matter), how dark can you go without attracting unwanted legal attention? I know you can't do the front windows or the windshield in CA...beyond that, I'd like to go as dark as possible without getting the cops interested (and, I imagine that pushing it right to the limit will attract attention even if it is legal)...I cannot afford to get pulled over for any reason; I drive for a living and need to keep a clean record.
Any thoughts would be appreciated...thank you in advance
