Does anyone find their tints on the hatch window to be considerably darker than the other windows? I had my car tinted at 30% all around and the hatch window is way darker. Does the hatch window come darker from the factory?

It's likely an illusion. Because if the angle and the fact that there isn't an opposite window, there will not be as much light coming through. Unless you're saying it looks darker from the inside...then I don't know

I see what you mean from the outside, but I meant from the inside. even at just 30% it seems like it's way darker

I always tint my cars 5% and I live in NJ. I find that only cops that have nothing better to do will stop me for my tint.
