Default H3 Window Tint

Does anybody know what the window tint percentages are for the side and back windows? I saw them listed somewhere before and cannot remember where I saw them. I went back through the manual page by page and was unsuccessfull in finding the numbers I am looking for.

Depends upon the state you live in...plug in a search for window tint laws for your state on the Internet and it should tell you. This should help you..not sure of it's accuracy tho

The rear windows on my 2007 H3 (Canadian mind you) say 18% ±5% on them.

A couple of the Ebay Window Tint marketers say 20% is the factory tint. I sure hope so 'cause that's what I ordered. $15 for the two front windows, including S&H.

I also wanted to do 20% all the way around. I was just curious what the factory put on there so I would know if I need to add any to it to make it 20%.

I just got mine done yesterday by TNT Window Tinting in Orange City, FL (about 25 miles north of Orlando) - (386) 775-2040. The 2 front windows were $63.90 including 6.5% sales tax.

The owner said what was on the back is 20% and in FL the legal limit is 35%. Even though he said he would do the 20%, I chose the 35% because it maintains the lifetime warranty and FL law enforcement has been known to check windows in these parts. Mine is the Onyx series manufactured by Madico. I think it looks great and from certain angles you can't tell they are any different from the rears. You definitely need some type of tinting in FL, especially in the summer.

I'll take pictures and post later.

Jeff
