What is "factory tint" % on 2011 C300s?
I probably have the terms wrong for this, but I know all windows come with small "tint %" already that you have to take into account when getting tints (so if factory installed windows are already tinted 5% and I want my windows tinted 35%, I need the shop to only add 30% film).
Can anyone tell me what this number is for 2011 C300 Sports straight from factory?
Thanks so much,

5% tint would mean it would only let through 5% of the light - meaning a reall dark tint. I think what you mean is 95% tint. There is no official word on if there is any factory tint at all. I also doubt you would find 40% tint films. Just do 35%, it will look good.

On my CDN 2011 the factory tint was noticable - about 75%. I didn't know that ahead of time when I ordered 30% on top of that from the dealer - I find it a little too dark at night.
