The most usable I've had was a mild green tint.

Not dark but had/has amazing UV protection - took all the 'burn' outta the sun but you could still see through/around and it work great with the green tint across the top of the windscreen.
It was a great 'period' look, but not sure if thats the idea you were looking for.

Sorry for the hijack but I was actualy considering something like that - a "period look" tint atleast across the top of the screen. Did you have a green tinted windscreen plus a green strip across the top or was it just the strip on an untinted screen?

Any photos?
