Ford Ranger window tint

SuperCrew, SuperCab and the glass between them

The Ranger comes two ways, and the glass is the whole difference for tint. The SuperCrew has four full-size door windows and the back glass. The SuperCab has two full doors, two smaller rear-hinged doors with their own small panes, and the back glass. The SuperCrew takes a little longer and costs a little more because there is simply more film on the truck. Window tint at Offshore is computer-cut to those shapes, so there are no gaps at the edges and no blades on the glass.

The legal line

Hawaii requires 35% VLT or lighter on the front door glass, measured through the film and the glass together, with a 6% tolerance when the annual safety inspection meters it. The front doors land at 35% or lighter on every Ranger. Because the truck has mirrors on both sides, the rear doors and back glass can be any shade, and 15% or 5% behind the B-pillar matches the look of factory privacy glass. Mirrored film is out, and on a 2013 or newer truck the third brake light stays clear. Every Ranger leaves with the compliance certificate Hawaii requires, which stays in the truck. The Hawaii window tint law page has the full breakdown, including the brow strip across the top of the windshield down to the AS-1 line, which is a half-hour add-on with any tier.

Rear slider

Many Rangers have a rear sliding window. The fixed panes and the center slider are cut separately, with the film trimmed around the slider frame so it still opens cleanly. It is part of the full package, not an extra.

Co-Pilot360

Co-Pilot360 is the forward camera behind the windshield near the mirror, the radar unit in the grille, and the blind-spot sensors in the rear bumper. None of those sit behind the side or rear glass, so door and back glass tint cannot affect them. If you add a windshield film on the V10 or V16 tier, ProLayers ceramic film has no metal layer, and the camera looks through it the same as through clear glass.

Which film

The V6 Comfort carbon tier handles glare and UV at the lowest price. The V10 Ceramic IR is the usual recommendation, because the ceramic film rejects infrared heat that carbon film at the same shade lets through, and a Ranger parked outside at a jobsite or a beach park lot all day is where that shows. The V16 Ceramic IR MAX is the top infrared-rejection tier and the pick for a full windshield. Every tier uses the same Hawaii-legal front shades.

Raptor and the rest of the trims

The Ranger Raptor shares its cab and glass with the SuperCrew, so it is the same cut, the same film and the same time. XL, XLT, Lariat and Tremor are all the same glass by cab style. The trim badge changes nothing about the tint, which is why the quote asks for the cab and the slider and not the trim.

Scheduling

A SuperCrew runs roughly 2 to 2.5 hours on V6, 2.5 to 3 on V10 and 3 to 3.5 on V16, with the slider adding a little time. Most Rangers are a morning drop-off and an afternoon pickup. Keep the windows up for 3 to 5 days afterward while the film dries. Send the year, cab style and whether it has a slider with your quote request and we will confirm the hours and a date.
