Title: Tinted windows
Post by: Bozz on December 04, 2016, 07:15:37 pm

Hi everyone, I'm thinking of having my golf tinted & I thought of having the same % as I had on my beetle,,, Which was 20% on rear & 35% on rear sides & 50% on the front sides, But the back & rear sides have already got a light tint from the factory, Does anyone know what % VW put on the glass please ?

I think it's around 13% from factory on the front side windows.

The front sides look clear really, It's the rear & rear sides that look tinted ?

FYI front windows have to allow 70% light through them so 50% would be illegal
