    planning to install full 3M BC35 in my front windshield. any feedback on:
    - visibility at night and when it rains heavily
    - glare reduction of incoming high beam lights
    - wala bang interference yung cellphone saka gps signal since metallic
    - can you use e-pass

    thanks in advance for your feedback

    Ito rin ba yung tinatawag na magic tint?
    If yes, ok naman kahit umuulan. Sa gabi, pag ordinary yung HL mo tingin ko medyo alanganin.

    I have BC20(or 25 ba yun? Basta yung medium magic) sa full front windshield.

    Night driving when heavy rain hindi naman reduced for me. Siguro depende rin sa headlight mo at kung ano ang tint sa ibang bintana.

    Yung headlights reduced yung glare IMO.

    GPS hindi naman affected sa experience ko, pero EPASS you cant mount sa windshield. I have to bring it out pa kapag mag toll ako.

    thanks for your help. nagpalagay ako ng small piece of bc35 sa windshield, ok naman sa gabi. when i asked the price, 2500 for full ws as compared to 5600 for full ws 3m cr70 sa winterpine. konti na lang difference and we preferred better visibility so we got 3m cr70.

    I use 3M Black Chrome BC35 all around. My e-pass has no problem getting read, and it's plenty usable at night after about a week of getting used to it.

    For what it costs it's a good buy, I think.

    BC35 user for almost 4yrs (sold the car na). Happy naman at hindi nagfade. Naging problem ko lang was minor - yun proximity card ko sa enterprise tower ayaw basahin, have to roll down my window and wave it sa sensors. Yun isang oto naman na naka 3m color stable super black binabasa naman yun proximity card w/o rolling my windows

    Sa Garmin GPS mejo me kabagalan mag retrieve ng satellite feed. Tho not sure if me factor yun tint. (Sold the GPS with the car na din. Hehe)

    Sa gabi naman, maliwanag for me - parang walang tint lang (pero mukhang subjective eto)

    Same here. It's only when I went to really dark areas in QC (St. Luke's anyone?) when I wished I had less tint up front...but apart from "clear" 70% tints, 35% tint is the lightest we get locally. It's way better than a super-dark windshield for me.
