Duc Hunter's thread talks about his experience with tinting and is a good reference. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/1031236-classic-retrofit-c-experience-guide.html

When shopping for tint you need heat rejection. The UV rejection is the easy part, many tints block 99%+ of UV regardless of how dark or light they are.
Has anyone found nearly clear tint? It still lowers radiant heat. But I want to avoid the dark tint look. The lightest I can find is 83%.
