Short answer
Offshore tints the Toyota Tacoma with ProLayers film on Maui, with patterns for the 2024 and newer fourth generation and the earlier trucks, in Double Cab and Access Cab or XtraCab. Front doors stay at 35% VLT or lighter, measured through film and glass as Hawaii requires, and the rear doors and back glass can be any shade because the truck has mirrors on both sides. A Double Cab takes about two to three and a half hours depending on the film tier, and tint is quoted from labor hours for your cab plus the tier.
Key takeaways
- The 2024 and newer Tacoma has a more complex rear window shape than earlier trucks; we stock patterns for every generation.
- TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro and Trailhunter trims share the standard Tacoma glass, so the film, process and price are the same.
- Double Cab and Access Cab or XtraCab are different glass layouts, and the cab sets the labor.
- A sliding rear window is cut as separate pieces so the slider still opens and closes cleanly.
- ProLayers film has no metal layer, so Toyota Safety Sense, the backup camera and the radio are unaffected.

How it works
- 01Year and cab
Tell us the year and whether it is a Double Cab or an Access Cab or XtraCab. Those two things set the pattern and the hours.
- 02Glass check
We note the windshield camera housing, the rear slider if there is one, and any old film that needs to come off.
- 03Prep
Ammonia-free clean of every pane, including the corners of the back glass where dust collects on a truck.
- 04Cut and install
Film is computer-cut for your Tacoma, applied wet and squeegeed. The back glass is heat-shrunk to its curve, and a slider is filmed in sections.
- 05Inspect and cure
Every pane is checked before pickup. Leave the windows and the slider closed for three to five days while the film cures.
What's specific to this vehicle
- Glass
- A Double Cab Tacoma has four door windows and the back glass. The fourth-generation truck (2024 and newer) has a more complex rear window shape than the 2016 to 2023 truck, so it uses its own pattern. Many trims carry a sliding rear window; the fixed outer panes and the slider are filmed as separate pieces so the slider glides without catching an edge.
- Cab
- The Double Cab has four doors and the most glass. The Access Cab on earlier trucks has small rear-hinged doors, and the XtraCab on the 2024 and newer truck has no rear doors at all. Both carry less glass, so they take less time. Tell us which one you have when you request a quote.
- Trim
- SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, Limited, TRD Pro and Trailhunter share the same glass within a generation. Same film, same process, same price.
- ADAS
- Toyota Safety Sense uses a camera behind the windshield at the mirror and a radar behind the grille emblem. Side and rear film never touch them. ProLayers film is non-metallic, so pre-collision braking, lane assist and radar cruise keep working, and the backup camera view is unchanged.
- Tint levels
- Front doors are installed at 35% VLT or lighter, the Hawaii limit, measured through film and glass, with a 6% tolerance when the tint is metered at inspection. The rear doors and back glass can be any shade because the Tacoma has mirrors on both sides. Going darker in back matches the factory privacy glass on upper trims, and a lighter ceramic on the fronts still cuts the heat.

Tinting a Tacoma
A Tacoma tends to spend its day parked in the open: a job site, a beach park lot, a trailhead. A dark cab with a big back window heats up fast. Window tint with ProLayers film keeps it cooler and cuts the glare. Every Tacoma here gets ProLayers automotive window film, cut by computer for its generation and cab. This page sits under the vehicles hub.
The 2024 and newer Tacoma
The fourth-generation Tacoma changed the glass. Its rear window has a more complex shape than the 2016 to 2023 truck, and it does not share a pattern with it. We stock film patterns for every generation, so the only thing we need from you is the year. TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, TRD Pro and the Trailhunter all use the standard glass for their generation, which means a TRD Pro costs the same to tint as an SR5.
Cab and the back glass
The Double Cab is the bigger job: four doors and the back glass, about two to three and a half hours depending on the film. An Access Cab or XtraCab has less glass and goes faster.
On trucks with a sliding rear window, the back glass is three pieces of film, not one: the two fixed outer panes and the slider. Each is cut to its own edge so the slider moves without dragging the film. Fixed back glass is filmed in one piece and heat-shrunk to its curve on the outside first, then installed on the inside.
Shade and sensors
Front doors go on at 35% VLT or lighter, which is the Hawaii limit, measured through the film and the glass together, with a 6% tolerance when the annual safety inspection meters it. The rear doors and back glass can be any shade, because the truck has mirrors on both sides. Mirrored film is out, and on a 2013 or newer Tacoma the third brake light stays clear. Every Tacoma leaves with the compliance certificate Hawaii requires, which stays in the truck; the Hawaii window tint law page has the full rules. Toyota Safety Sense lives behind the windshield and the grille emblem, and the side and rear film never touch it. ProLayers film has no metal layer, so the backup camera, the radio and keyless entry work the same.
Carbon or ceramic
V6 carbon film handles privacy and glare. The V10 and V16 ceramic tint tiers reject infrared heat, which is what you feel on the steering wheel after a truck sits at a job site all afternoon. If the Tacoma also needs paint protection, the Tacoma PPF page covers the front end and rockers. Send the year and cab and we will quote it.
Questions
How much does it cost to tint a Toyota Tacoma on Maui?
Tint is quoted from labor hours for your cab and the film tier you pick, plus Hawaii GET, with a deposit to book. Send the year and cab style and we will send the exact figure.
Do you tint the fourth-gen Tacoma (2024 and newer)?
Yes. The 2024 and newer Tacoma has a different rear window shape, and we carry patterns for it as well as the earlier generations.
How long does Tacoma window tint take?
About two to three and a half hours for a Double Cab, depending on the film tier. An Access Cab or XtraCab is a little quicker.
Can you tint a sliding rear window?
Yes. The slider and the fixed panes are filmed separately so the slider opens and closes without catching. Keep it shut for the first few days.
What is the darkest legal tint for a Tacoma in Hawaii?
Front side windows must let at least 35% of light through film and glass, with a 6% tolerance at inspection. Rear doors and the back glass can be any shade because the truck has mirrors on both sides. The windshield takes a top strip down to the AS-1 line, or 4 inches from the top where there is no AS-1 mark, or a clear film that keeps the AS-1 area at 70%. Hawaii has no medical exemption for darker fronts.
Do TRD Pro and Trailhunter trims cost more to tint?
No. They share the standard Tacoma glass, so the film, labor and price are the same.
