That's why these more advanced clear films on the Prius or from aftermarket companies like Llumar are so cool. They block more heat than most dark tints, block almost all UV/IR, and yet block less the 20-30% visible light. I think if it is standard equipment on a Prius we needn't worry might about safety.
