    So my understanding (not a lawyer) is that the windshield is not "tinted" it is instead a "UV Film" that does not have any tint applied to it, and that all films reduce transmittance of light in some way. Therefore it allows 70% of light to pass through the film even though there is no tinting applied to the film itself. It is therefore considered "clear". This is my understanding of how this windshield "film" works. Due to this it does meet the requirements of Texas DPS as it is a "A clear (un-tinted) UV film is allowed anywhere on the front windshield without a medical exemption being required."

    You can get the ceramic coating for your windshield with no tint whatsoever. It still blocks a lot of the heat but allows all the light to enter.

    Right! After talking again with the installer this evening, the windshield is not tinted at all however even though it is a clear film the components involved at blocking the UV rays and IR block some transmittance of light even though there is no tint applied.

    Just wondering how many “TRD” logo items on your truck? Maybe I’m about average what’s on mines

    Had nitro 5:29 gears and Auburn Pro LSD installed a couple of weeks ago. Didn't post it up because the shop broke the axle seal and sent it back to me leaking . It was leaking everywhere and I had to pull the axle and install a new seal with a bad cold. They are at 400 miles of the break in now. I like them. The lsd does bark the tires in a sharp turn but stops the Traction control from coming on all the time as I have a heavy foot.

    Adam, the gas cap just goes over the stock gas cap with double stick tape.
    The black one hasn't been on eBay for about 4 months, only silver.

    Wish app, but you’ll wait like 6 weeks. The radiator cap is a cover that goes over the original and is heavy duty

    I dunno, I bet BJ welds are more popular, especially for the welders.
