Honestly, even w/o tinting it's hard to see backing up.

quote:Don't know about you guys, but I learner to back up using only my left and right mirrors, I never look in the rear view mirror nor over my shoulder..... i mostly use the side windows (i learned to do it that way since i drove a icecream truck for a while and it didn't have a rear view mirror) but i like being able to doublecheck that noone is standing behind the car..

Gotta do something about that blindspot, and I'm thinking mini LCD screen with rear mounted Micro-Cam. Nice to dream about, but I'm broke and stuff costs money.
