Window tinting on 86 truck??

How much cooler would the A/C blow inside the cab if I had the windows tinted.The non factory A/C blows 51 at the vent on a 95 degree day after a twenty minute ride.

My experience has been that tint makes little to no difference when trying to keep your interior cooler. And the tint itself is not going to make your AC blow colder at the vents.

Don't do it! You will freeze to death!

Tint will help keeping your interior cooler just sitting but shade works much better.

Those old ACs work well converted and upgraded.
