As 1993 SLE said, many people here have 5% limo tint, reflective tint, etc here. Not that you CAN'T get stopped for it, but they tend to be pretty lenient here, in my experience.
One of my main reasons for getting this tint is the high solar load in Florida, especially with the "greenhouse" windows of a Bonnie. I expect the A/C to finally be able to keep up with the heat next summer.
This tint film brand (LLumar) is tops and the installer is an artist, figuratively AND actually. No tint lines at the window tops (tint has appearance of stock - sort of) and all one-piece installs (i.e. back window). Also, I brought my tools to the place so that I could remove the back seat back and third brake light, but the guy there told me that he always does a complete install, which includes that service. So no sweat on my part AND a great finished job too! WooHoo!

You'll waste so much money in scrap tint you're better off paying to have it done right. Then you get a warranty in case there are any issues later.
