Turns out nobody at the dealership actually knew, but they believed it was maximum allowable within UK regs. So, does anyone actually know what BMW actually say the % tint is, and what is the UK limit?

Thanks, FD
I say the 'Individual Sun Protection' is about 40%. I have a tint sample thats 40% and it looks like its as dark as the OEM tint.
