Question about the tint on sunroof and tinting

I was wondering how much tint is on the sunroof on the 2002 civic. And people that have 5% tint on your car how well can you see at night thought the windows. I deciding between 5% and 35% on tinting. My car is a black sedan so the whole black thing would look nice with 5% but it seems a little too dark in the inside.

I would go 15-25%
20% is actually your best bet though.

go with 20% all around
anything under, you'll end up running over a kid when you're backing up
anything over, you're a little bit light

I've seen a lot of people with tinted front windshields, most do 20-25% but I've seen someone with 5% and I don't see how they could see out of that. I think I'm going to get my front windshield done at 35% since the rest of my windows are 10%, it should be dark enough since all the other windows are dark.

My buddy has 35% all the way around including winshield, makes it look like 15% all the way around.

I am not sure if quality tint makers make a 25%, or at least the shop I know does not carry it.
