Has anybody tint their front cockpit windows? If yes, how dark (%) did you get? I'm contemplating 30%, but possibly a lighter shade due to night time visiblity.

Mine is 20% but I have an SS and the windshield is very low so night time is not a factor. Looks awesome.

I guess it depends on your use of the boat....if you are on the water at dark then go lighter....if a daytime cruiser only then your fine. I have the SS with dark tint and short profile. I would prefer to have the glass fill window like you have and tint it like your planning. You will like the look and be amazed at the heat reduction at the cockpit.

Had a H200SS with tinted windshield and while it looks killer it is not very good for night use.
