Then you would seriously be breaking the law.  There are strict regulations concering automotive glazing - all windows from the "B" pillar forward must have a minimum light transmission of 70%, and the front screen must be (i think) 85%.  Which explains why no car manufacturer will fit, nor supply "privacy" style tinted glass for the front side windows.
