Default Tint

Does anyone know the matching tint % and color to match rear window tints with warm package?

Do a quick search...there are a couple of threads on here that should be able to help you out.

Solar Gard Galaxie film 20% and it matches well.

Side question: is there any way to disable the auto-dimming feature on the outer mirrors? Wife finds the mirrors too dark with the tints now.

Theres a button on your rear view mirror that will shut off the auto dimmer.

Really? I didn't notice any mention of it in the owner's manual so that is why I didn't bother looking for one. I figured it would have to be coded or something. I'll look for it tonight.

I may have jumped the gun but I know there was one on my last S4 so I would assume it's the same on the SQ I just haven't looked.

I was correct....there is a button under the mirror. Per the manual:

Your vehicle is equipped with a manual or automatic* dimming rearview mirror . Manual dimming rearview mirror .,. Pull the lever on the bottom of the mirror back. Automatic dimming rearview mirror* .,. The interior and exterior mirrors dim automatically when light shines on them, for example from headlights on a vehicle behind you.
