Toyota RAV4 glass: what to know before tinting
- Most trims leave the factory with darkened "privacy" glass behind the front doors. That darkness is dyed into the glass: it gives privacy but rejects little heat, so film is still added on top for heat and UV.
- The front side windows are normal clear glass, so they look lighter than the rear. Matching them is limited by California law (see below).
California tint law on a Toyota RAV4
California requires the front side windows to let through at least 70% of light. The rear side windows and back glass have no darkness limit when the vehicle has both outside mirrors. A non-reflective strip is allowed along the top of the windshield. Full details: California window tint laws.
