I tint it all. Even the moonroof so I can leave it open in the summer without dying.

Typically, I just do 70% all around (another reason why I have to stick with the high end stuff in order to get any decent heat rejection). That way, the factory tinted areas aren't so dark I can't see out of them.

But that's cuz I'm so paranoid about heat.

My neighbor just tinted the front windows of his Cayenne and left the factory tinted windows alone. But he's not as bothered by heat as I am.

Especially since we live in CA. We can get some some intense heat in the summer months.

I did all the windows, moonroof, and windshield with ceramic tint. The front windows to match the back window. The moonroof and windshield is 70%. Not hot enough to see if it makes a difference yet.
