Tint 5% or 20%

[simonnomiss]

Ok so i've been debating with myself for days whether to go 5% or 20% on my wagon,
couldn't find anywhere that did 15% as im in Tas, but just wanted to get opinions and photos if anyone has any!
I love dark tint but is 5% too dark? or is 20% too light?
dark tint will really finish off the black on silver look I'm going for, and as for police harassment I'm not too worried you can get away with a lot in tas!
tint has been stripped as it had 50% tint

Personally, 20% would be the go for me. Technically not legal, but a hell of a lot better than 5% (way to dark at night)

But other people may thing 5% isn't too dark.. It all comes down to the person

A friend has 10% or whatever the next one above 5% is on his falcon, way too dark, winds down his windows at night if it's not too cold...

Get a good quality 20% tint and it'll be black enough.

hmm looks like 20% may be the go! even possible 20 on the fronts and the rest at 5, anyone got pictures? on wagon

The privacy glass at the rears on the post facelift Spec.B is 18% and that is plenty dark. Just go 20% all round it will look sweet.

My GT has 15%, but you dont have that option.

The Outback has 20%. Im more than happy with that.

5% is way too dark.

not 100% sure as my girl got my windows tinted for me as a surprise but I think my fronts are legal 35%? And rears are either 15 or 5%, they are very dark at night and I do have to be careful reversing and merging but I am very careful

5% is way too dark.

+1 it's only 5% away fom having planks of wood instead of windows

no real input from me on the tint but can i say simon your wagon looks pretty damn nice for just some basic mods

[essbeecee]

20% for sure.

You gotta be one ugly duckling to need 5%

I've always gone 15% and will be doing the same for mine, when I get round to it.

5% is way too dark

I'd go the 20%, however id go two layers of it on the rear windows and the back.

i just got mine tinted today, i did the side windows 20% and the rear window 5%

in my opinion, 5% isnt THAT dark, but its down to the individual to make the decision

i think the 20/5 looks sweet and you can merge fine, use your mirrors for reversing.
you can see out the back in the day anyway

5% = way too dark
20% of 20% = 4% = ok
