So, I take your point. I should explain the goal a little more. Since I used residential/commercial tint and not automotive tint (cheaper by far!) I thought it would matter to confirm effectiveness. Also, since I am using it for seriously needed heat abatement in a car with no AC, I thought it would be useful to me and others if I can demonstrate the benefit through measurements of the heat on the dash. My dashboard becomes a ~180° or more space heater in peak summer. If I can pring that down 30 or 50° I will feel successful because cracked-open & fully-open windows will work a lot better.
EDIT: I wouldn't be testing it but for the fact that I have to reinstall because I did it not so well on my first try. Seems convenient now.
