If your so worried about the legality, why did'nt you say anything about not paying tax?
If a cop pulled you over you should just roll down your window then he won't see it. I have never been questioned about my 20%, and this is the first I have ever heard about the cops even caring about a tint besides mirrored. As far as I know, I don't think a cop can legally pull you over for that. I think they have to pull you over for something else, then they can write you a ticket for that also. Not sure if that applys in your state. |

forget worrying about getting pulled over, that will never happen where i live. The only thing i worry about is passing inspection, and paying some jack ass $10 to hold two plasic pieces up to my window for all of 5 secs. then telling me it didn't pass, then fixing it and paying another $10. Thats why i say to stay in the legeal limit. Although i know some people that found some guys to pass em, but thats a bitch, and can easly turn into an all day thing. And handing lots of people $10. live in nc btw.

I've got 20% on mine, and I've been pulled over about 15 times, but I've never had a cop comment on the tint.
One time I had it tested though, and mine is actually 22% or so, and the legal limit is 25% here, but the cop said that there was a 3% or so margin of error on their tint checking machine, so I was fine. The cop said it looked a lot darker than 22%, but I think it's because my car is a bright color, so there's a lot of contrast. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

Here in Ga I was told it's a 2% margin, so the original 30% would have been fine... so, Tuesday at 11 a.m. this problem will all be over with

Tint laws suck, you all need to move to Florida where the legal limit is 35% on front and 20% on everything back...
I have 10% on everything except the winshield, that's 20% |

man, cops suck. Looking out for speeders, looking at lights, looking at tints. WHy dont they go out and do something useful, like keeping the peace instead of just trying to take our money?
I got 20% on all sides except the two small back sides, which are 2.5%. Windshield has no tint. When I got a parking ticket once at school for forgetting to hang my parking permit, they had a comment on the ticket saying that I had very dark tint. hehe, but they didn't do anything bout that. |
