We are back to struggling with the issue of limiting the glare and IR/UV coming in the front windshield.
The potential of a Magna Shade is nice, once up, for the campground but does not help in transit.
I prefer not to wear sun glasses as it makes it hard to read gauges/GPS, at times, in the cockpit.
Considering a tint of 75% transparency on the windshield and possibly 60% on the side windows.
This allows for enough light for our limited night driving and blocks the majority of IR/UV. Also, I've installed excellent LED headlamps, so that is not an issue.

It is legal with a doctor's note (feel like I'm back in High school) to tint the windshield in Florida. Florida issues a permit for the windshield tint. Same thing in MN.

Thoughts from those with either or both?
