35% tint on the front and 5% on the back cut a lot of heat. The seats reach 60+ degrees on a 30 degree day. I made a windshield reflector with mylar diamond sheet and it keeps the seats very comfortablel. Putting the reflector on the outside keeps the windshield itself cool, which radiates less heat and is a huge load off the a/c.
