    Default Rear Window tint effect rear detection?

    Right now i have 15% tint all the way around my windows, im thinking about getting 5% done today, how much of a effect would this have on my rear detection?

    Non metallic/ceramic tint and you're fine except maybe laser detection. It's been covered on here many times. That's a lot of money to rip off already dark tint to do it over again.

    The V1 can pick up REAR laser scatter through 35%.

    did test with 5% tint on the TL and the V1 keep going off about 20ft farther away with no tint compared to 5%.
