I think they made 15 too.. But I could be wrong..

You also gotta keep in mind that the ttops let alot of the light in also.. So im thinking if you tinted them to 5% and the rest 20% it would be pretty dark.. Because I know when I put my ttop covers over the ttop windows it made it get darker in the car because the sun couldnt come down through the roof.. So when I tint them again, I think im goin with 5% ttops and 20 all around.. That should make it pretty dark in there, and still be able to see good..

any good tint shop should have a display board with all the tints on it, they will also tell you what you can get away with in your area
