Default Rear Window & Sunroof Tint

I was planning on getting my front windows tinted with ceramic film. The tint shop told be the sunroof and rear windows have zero UV or heat rejection. Therefore I should lightly tint these for better heat rejection in the TX sun. Is this true and or what do you guy recommend?

Default Tint all

Howdy partner,
I also resisted (initially) my expert tint guy to tint all out the 5, but then I did it. On the 7, straight from the dealer. OEM glass has no UV rejection qualities. Nonetheless, car looks awesome, can't see inside as light is blocked from every direction. Has that Mysterious feel. And yes, much cooler inside, is not an owen after few hours left outside, here in sunny (Nor)Cali. Makes a huge difference on long summer hot roadtrips.
cheers,
Bob

Absolutely. xtreme tint in Santa Clara. I have done my last 6 cars there, straight from dealer I tint and clearbra. Rest is truly an artist, old school. Very good man also. He'll take care of you.

Hope that helps,
