I want to tint the windows in my 72 Malibu. I have the sales literature and it says tint was an option. Does anyone know how dark of a tint the original was? I'm trying to keep as close to the original as I can and this is the ONLY non-stock thing I am doing to the car. Thanks much - Anne

Hi Anne
The tint that is refered in the sales
literature is the same tint that you would see on just about any car that is on the road today. It's just slightly darker than regular clear glass, sometimes it's hard to tell. I find the best way to tell is at night.Like on my 72 it was more noticeable at night because someone had replaced the right door with a used one with clear glass. I have a white interior and if you looked at the car you could tell that all the other windows are slightly darker than the one on the right door. So basicly what I'm saying is the window tint your'e looking for isn't the same tint you would get at a tint shop.
Hope this helps you out.
Good luck with your car!
