A Little Bit About Automotive Glass – Truck Tech
Reading Toyota’s official description of the 2011 Tundra, you’ll find the following lines about glass:

Limited grade models receive standard IR-cut glass, further reducing solar levels.
The question is, What the heck are “High Solar Energy Absorbing” glass and “IR-Cut” glass, and how do they work?
