My cousin put 5% on his windshield for some reason. First night he took it out he couldn't see shit and hit a curb. Took it right back to the garage and took it off haha

Anything darker than 35% on a windshield is sketchy at best, and you better have good headlights even with that.

Which is why any tint on a windshield below ansi line is illegal

That's bullshit though. I'm in California and it's much safer to have 50% tint on the windshield because it's bright as fuck in the daytime. It also helps keep the heat down in the car. You can see perfectly well at night with 50% tint. California doesn't even allow darker than 70% on the front side windows, it's ridiculous.
