Question Looking for 5% yellow tint

Hey, laws here say I can have 5% tint on the front windshield for 2.5 inches then 25% or lighter for another 2.5 inches.

Anyone know where I can find bright yellow tint at 5% transparency? It's kinda crucial to my style I have in mind.

5% transparency yellow tint? WTF? Even regular amber signals are at least 50% transparency.

It's not for a turn signal, its for the front windshield. Laws say up to 5% first 2.5 inches from top, then 20% or more for the next 2.5 inches.

I plan on putting yellow on my car in other places too, eventually. I did find one OLD website that says it sold 5% yellow, but it was the only one, and all the links on there were dead.

Pretty much, I'm looking for a small roll of 5% yellow tint. By the foot works too

I want 5% so it blocks out the sun. It needs to be yellow because I'll be getting a body kit and a spoiler which will incorporate yellow.

you read something wrong. Again, from the top of the window, you can have tint 5% for the first 2.5 inches ON THE TOP OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. Not all over. It's to block the sun at the top of the windshield. A sun visor. I want it yellow, 5%

Yeah, guess I did. Regardless, yellow doesn't get that dark, 35% is the lowest. Good luck with that, post pics, I could use a laugh.

It's black. I got the idea from seeing a black bird up close. Black and Yellow are also the colours that aboriginals use the most. I love my native women

It's going to be done like the mustangs except more rice like

Well, if anyone knows where to get this 35% tint, please tell me. I think I found some 20% online on ebay, I'll have to confirm. I guess I'll just put a few layers on. Who cares if I get pulled over, I'll be taking out my cat too anyway
