My vote- no. The window is already small enough that it doesn't need tint. It's not like the huge windshield on a 90s Camaro or Dodge Intrepid that begs for tint. And I'm in sunny AZ and couldn't live w/o the side tint.

When i bought mine the fronts were tinted waaaaayyy  dark.  I loved it.  Highway patrol, not so much.  I can understand why this is an important crime to fight when there are tractor trailers, constantly running the three red lights through town at 60 + mph all day long, less then a mile from where i got pulled over.  Of course, i got no warning, just a nice $85.00 ticket.  I wish they would go fight real crime instead of screwing around in town.  Hello?? Highway patrol??  Meanwhile, the city cops patrol the highway through town.  The last time i actually needed the highway patrol (after an accident) it took them over an hour to show up.

"How do you see out your windows at night??"  Simple.  I put them down.  My car has a magic button that moves them out of the way in about 2 seconds. 

So i bought a roll of 35% to be right on the line of the law.  I will probably get another ticket as the front tint is down past the magic "AS1" line. 
I wouldn't get one of the logo banners, I think tacky, and funny when they spell the custom ones wrong.  There was a "camero" in town for a while that i always got a laugh out of.  Personally i would say, go for a pretty dark tint to the AS1 line (if your state allows it) unless you like putting the sun visor down, which blocks much more of your window.  I'm 6'1" so the sun visors pretty much block the whole window for me.

I'm in upstate NY and have never been bothered and my pickup and Audi were both not even close to being legal, guess I've been lucky......Back to the topic, if my deal goes thru I'll be doing the fronts and a strip across the top of the windsheild.....

I say go for it !!

Thats correct, I was told if there is any factory tint on the front windows at all you can not make them any darker or they will be illegal in NY.....
