We will be in touch
Really the question I'm asking is, are privacy glass windows too dark when sat in the van on a rainy day?
There's the tinted option or clear but fitting a curtain.
Nope, I'm assuming you don't mean the front side windows tho.
If the van's rockin'.....

No, one on the sliding door and the fixed panel the opposite side.
If the van's rockin'.....
Prefer it outdoors than in the he van if I'm honest
The full tint is fine, makes it a little darker, but seeing out is always Ok.
Blinds/curtains or those foil backed heat shields are the norm with my camper van mates.
We've got tinted windows in our van, apart from windscreen..so it's still possible to accidentally moon people 😳
We've got pretty heavily tinted with a one way finish. It's great. Very private. You can't see in at all when the lights are off. Handy when parking up in town too. Not an issue from inside. In fact I smashed one a few weeks back and replaced it with a light tint glass from a scrapper and it's nowhere near as good. Need to get it properly tinted.
You've been in my van Shaun? That's the darkest tint available. You can still see out really well.

Does this help?
Yes, that'll do it. Ta for that.
Looks plenty bright with the side door opened...is the question more can you see inside the van ok during the day in the back with all windows and doors closed?
If so, then the vans I've been in that have a sort of up-to-date shade of tint have been fine, the darker ones are ok on bright days but felt much darker on gloomy days.
I got changed in my van last Thursday at the lake to go windsurfing. By the time I was ready I really didn't feel like it as it looked so cold and miserable through the dark glass.
When I emerged, though, it was like stepping into a brand new (cold and miserable) world.
If you plan on sleeping in it, the dark tint might mean you don't need curtains.
However, remember that if you've a light on inside the van in the dark, folk can still see in.
i've got factory fitted privacy glass to the rear side and rear window on my SMax and it's fine and bright enough inside during the day. It's very effective at keeping prying eye's out from looking in the van during the day too. However it is very dark at night and reversing and manoeuvring the car in a tight car park at night if not well lit is a case of relying heavily on the parking sensors and what you can see out of the door mirrors.
