If you want to go even lighter, Llumar makes this tint I found called Air Blue. It's 80%, and they claim that it will actually improve your visibility, due to it's optical clarity and low reflectivity because of it's nano ceramic technology, and blocks 99.9% of UV rays. It was designed to put on windshields so it wouldn't restrict visibility at night time, so I don't see why you couldn't put it on your front windows.
Here's a pic I found with it installed on side windows, and it looks like it's an overcast day. It's so light, I don't see how you couldn't get away with having it on.

That situation was about 10 yrs. ago when tint on the fronts in IL was illegal. The law has changed since then, and you're right it was the car I was driving. I was in my Mustang and the cop (Aurora) that pulled me over had one. He told me that since he couldn't have tint on his windows, then I couldn't. Guess he got really ticked when I told him that if I wanted to do something to him I had more training than he did, and I wouldn't do it sitting in my car.

No one else has suggested this but lighten up the rears with 20% or what the front windows are. That lets a lot more light in and doesn't look quite as dark.
I have 15% all around and a beige interior and I've only been pulled over once for it once and never ticketed. It looks lighter in the sun, streetlights, and headlights.

My max has 35% all around. UT state law is no darker then 45% in the front and as dark as you want in the back. 
Because my interior is black it darkens the inside even more at night or dusk. Almost makes them look %20 or darker.
