Just like normal tint.

My 10th anniversary windows were desecrated with some 32% tint. It looks pretty good. I didn't think the bronze was dark enough anyway

its about the same. The thing with mirror tint, is that it "Seems" like it harder to see into, so a 20% mirro tint seems to reflect more than a 20% regular tint. When it gets dark you see they are about the same cus there is no sunlight to reflect.

But over all 20% is 20% no matter if its mirror, black blue, or green tint.

I have the '90 GXL - I believe that is a "Tanau" cover? Correct me if I'm wrong. I have the Black on Black with a Black tinted window. The window and the tanau cover is great for making everything out-of-site!. Does a great job of hiding the stereo.

i think its spelled toneau, I guess that would be a name for it, but I mostly see that when referring to the flat truck bed cover. So sounds like a good description.
