That one roll covered all 4 of my back window and woulda had enough for the driver side but i cut it to short. I went to autozone and got a 20% made by gila and did the sides. I think im gunna switch the sides to 5% tho. I have to say that the gila is clearer to see through then the black magic and went on way easier with the hard scraper in the application set.

I've never been into tinted windows. Too much of a pita to see out of at night. Having said that, I'm thinking that a light tint (and I mean very light) would look good with what I'm aiming for on my truck. If I understand this then, the higher the % number, the lighter the tint is?

Yep, the % number is how much light can go through the tint, so the higher the number the lighter the tint.

Yes your right, the 5 % on my back ones is way dark, only darker is 2.5%. It is a pain in the dick but the static kind aint too bad plus i love the look of dark windows.
