    The easiest thing I do is keep a sweater on my passenger seat and when the sun bakes my arm I throw it on and turn up the a/c

    We bought the 70% ceramic tint. You can hardly tell it is there with the naked eye and I can definitely feel a difference on my arm.

    I notice a lot of times when I go into a weigh station the building and DOT is on the passenger side. So I wonder if I should only tint the driver side with the ceramic tint since I always drive alone. I only want the tint to keep the sun from baking me.

    The windshield blocks harmful rays and is totally transparent. Is that like ceramic?

    I chose not to tint the windshield with ceramic as our big issue was the sides, especially the driver side. The tint also supposedly blocks about half of the heat coming in through the window so I having it on both sides should keep it cooler during the summer. At the very least I would do it on the driver side window.
