Id go limo black up to the b pillar. You can see out clearly and protects the interiorIf it ain't broke... Take it apart anyway, how else you gonna find out how it works

Limo all the time,
Stops the thieving scrotes seeing what you've left lying about inside.
As Grunders says easy to see out, also adds sun protection
Only my opinion though
D3 57 xs Stornaway grey
D2 02 commercial silver gone but a great servant and won't be forgotten
Know these are for a D4 but I know they do D3 ones as well Morris Dancers: Drinkers with A Dance Problem

I would agree with the limo tint, I had some doubts at the time but had mine done last year with no regrets, you soon get used to it. Security wise it's great as you cannot see into the vehicle, plus it looks the business!!

Have a look at Roy_H s link,
Further down it shows what like the different percentages of tints look like
IMHO the darker the better
And in all honesty you can see out of them no problem
It would be a shame to go light then have to pay again to go darkerD3 57 xs Stornaway grey

Limo tints on mine...works a treatSill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders
Had 2 grades darker than limo on a Landcruiser, looked great but a real pain at night. Limo is sufficientPaul.

On a big car like the Disco, Limo, especially those with Sun Roof's.
Our's is pre-tinted, but guessing it's Dark Smoke, rather than Limo.
That's what i've got on my Estate car too, and it's more than dark enough, but has Black Interior, inc the roof lining and no sunroof, so looks alot darker than some.
Just got me a D3 Manual; I'm new to this Discovery Stuff!
