Default Window tint

This may have been asked before but I couldn't find it. What or why did Dodge only Tint the rear side windows on the quad cab? I guess that is better than no windows tinted, but Why not go ahead and tint the rear window???? In the manufacturing process it couldn't have cost more than a few cents to do. Hell I would have paid a couple dollars more for the rear window to be tinted!

Ruslt, do you have the split window with the slider or is it a solid window. I have the split with the slider and it's tinted.

I have the solid window in my 04 QC and it was NOT tinted. Still don't understand why it would not be tinted from the factory, I would have really liked that. However, I went ahead and tinged the driver\passenger\back on my own.

Does anyone know the actual %age of the rear tint? Because I would like to get the front two windows and the rear the same tint that way it doesn't look odd because it's too light or dark.

I did 20% on my front ones and it looks like it matches perfectly.

Default RE: Window tint

What about the color of the tint? I've seen some that is a little more amber in color... some that is a little more grey.
I have 20% in the car, but that looks a little darker than what my truck has in the back. It's hard to tell though.

I actually saw a quad cab (non-dodge) yesterday where the front windows were darker than the factory tint on the rears. Looked so terrible!

If it looked like there was amber in it, it was a colored or cheap tint. If you just go with a good grade automotive tint, then it should match just fine. If you take your truck in to get tinted, they will be able to tell you what percentage to use... I just know 20% good quality auto tint worked on my truck.
