I recently moved from Boston to Florida and immediately tinted all my windows. The shop convinced me to do a windshield tint as well. I was skeptical but I did it. And I'm happy I did.

My X4 sits outside all day and bakes, but when I get in, it needs only 30-60 seconds on Max A/C and then I'm comfortable to go to normal A/C. I didn't understand how much the tints helped until I got a loaner without tints while my car was in the shop. It was almost unbearable getting into the loaner after it sat out in the sun for a while.

So I'd recommend trying the all-around tinting. Hopefully, like me, you won't have to bother with one of the fold-out windshield shades.
