2015 silverado crew lt window stock tint. Help.

[Steve2517]

Had my rear glass replaced with oem glass and noticed it was lighter than my rear passenger windows. Checked stamps. 23 percent on rear window and 20 on Rear passenger now. Asked safelite about this. They said they got glass ordered from local dealer by my vin. Upon calling actual chevy customer care they told me by my vin it was ako deep tint glass at 20 percent. Not 23. I know it's only 3 percent but it looks lighter. Can anyone check there windows and let me know what they find out. My truck was originally sold in Canada if that matters. Safelite still insists by my vin on part number ordered by local dealership. Any help would be great.

Seems to me when you ask about replacing the glass a couple of weeks ago, most everyone said to go with OEM glass and stay away from Safelite..........

I re read everything. Maybe I'm missing part about safelite. I even drove there, an hour away and the guy had 20 years with window experience installing. Did not do the ordering however. And glass is oem. But apparently not the right tint.

Probably cheaper now to replace the other side window with safelite. Or find 3% tint and pray.

Safelite can order the OEM glass, they are just sky high on prices when they do it. I called them for my windshield, they were almost double of what the dealer wanted for the oem windshield.

It was insurance. No deductible

Mine says 20, rear doors and rear window.

 

Ordered for Canada - truck info as under avatar.

 

Seems like it might be your sides that are different for some reason.

 

Any chance you read it wrong and it doesn't say 23%?

 

 

AKP Glass, solar absorbing, tinted -- standard on base trucks

AKO Glass, deep-tinted -- standard on all other trims -- I verified that the rpo code tag on mine lists AKO.

Anybody got a base level truck that can check what theirs has for the trans number?

[Steve2517]

I guess mine is suppose to have ako glass. Deff says 23.

[Steve2517]

Anyone have rear glass tinted at 20 percent with defrost without the orange lines running through it. Thanks for any help.
