Hello Allan,

I used to tint cars for a living and now I do bird tours in the Top End, so
I know about both. I have a 60% tint on my vehicles. Any window film will
stop 99% of uv light and is worth having at least for that. The level of
glare and heat is much reduced with the lighter film, and your view is not
severely compromised. Avoid the dark 'maximum legal' film and go for a
lighter one.

Greetings,
I am purchasing a new vehicle and it has been recommended to me that here in
the tropics it is worth having the darkest tinting available to reduce heat
in the car. My question is how disturbing if at all is that to the
observation of wildlife from the vehicle?
Regards,
Alan
