Chicago, lake glare, and a 35% uniform standard.
Chicago and the surrounding metros run most of the Illinois tint volume. Lake-effect glare in winter and hot urban summers create a year-round case for ceramic — top-tier ceramic at the 35% law floor cuts both heat and glare without crossing into illegal territory. Fleet density around O'Hare and across the I-80/I-90 corridor drives a meaningful share of demand outside the consumer market. State law is uniform: 35% on front, back, and rear.
Quote within the law.
Illinois legal VLT minimums for sedans / wagons. SUVs, vans, and commercial vehicles often have separate (usually more permissive) rules. Verify with the Illinois DMV before quoting work.
What Illinois drivers actually pick.
Your shop's most-installed VLT depends on what's legal in Illinois. The visualizer below shows each level — keep 35% as the floor for front side glass.
Minimal — UV protection without darkening. Windshield-legal in many states.
Light — moderate glare reduction. Front-side legal in many states.
Medium — the most common request. Balanced privacy and visibility.
Dark — strong privacy, factory-look on most vehicles.
Darker — privacy-focused. Often used on rear doors and rear glass.
Limo — maximum privacy. Rear glass only in most states.
