Tint question

In Cali, probally any tint is illegal

 

in new york i know the side windows and back window can be as dark as you want

however the driver side and passenger sides must be 35% i believe

not sure if its the same in cali though

:lol: :lol: :lol: so true...i think its like 35% on the fronts.

 

The limit for the side windows in NY is 70%, which is like dirty glass.

 

hmmmm...i think i got 35% cause that was the limit but i may be wrong

 

Calif. is no tint on front or side windows at all.
Rear window can be solid black if you have 2 side mirrors.

 

i think i say this once a week, but this is another reason why i love Florida...they dont give a shizzle bout my 15% tint, if it didnt come on the car when i bought it, i would have 5%. :dancing6:

 

Californias tint laws are a joke. I have pretty dark tint, not sure how dark but at night you cant see in my car other than my cd player light. I emailed CHP to see what they were and got a response. Then I asked them why they were like that here but not in other states and they never answered me haha.

So far I have been lucky and havnt been pulled over for it and when I do get pulled over they never asked me to roll my windows up. I am pretty paranoid though if I see a cop anywhere I will roll them down. I have hookups now though.... pays to make friends with your girlfriends neighbor who is a cop and likes your Off Road X pipe Mustang HAHA.

 

i got pulled over for having my music too loud, after he gives me the ticket...he compliments my exhaust, my illegal exhaust. you know how pissed i was. but after, i was glad he didnt give me a ticket for the exhaust and my tint since my windows were half up.

and i have had people tell me that they couldn't see into my car in the middle of the afternoon driving on a sunny day on the highway. 8)

 

my tint is starting to peel on my back quarter windows.. soo i think maybe its time to get some new tint.. i dont know if i want to do anything illegal since my exhaust already is..

i heard that if Texas HP stops you, they like to get you for everything they can find wrong...

how dark is 35%?

 

I've never heard of anyone using 15%. It's normally 5, 20, 35, 50.

 

That's not to bad. If it's cloudy out you can barely see in. Sunny then you can see in ok.

 

mine were tinted at 2.5% but i took it off the side windows. i had to roll the windows down at night to see.

 

Where you guys getting this tint? 2.5? That is crazy. was it already on or did you buy it?

 

im pretty sure any tint is illegal in NY unless its from the factory...thats what the people that tinted my car told me and it says it here as well:

btw im 20% back 35% sides

 

i think i remember KB putting the tint meter on his...read like 2 or 3%, i believe it is because the stock glass is tinted some...so 5% tint plus the stock window or something :dunno:

 

Well i learned the hardway what the rules are for tint in cali. The back and quarter windows can be anything you want i have mine at like 10%. MY door windows used to be 50% but i got pulled over and got a ticket so once i took it off and was getting my ticket signed off i had the officer look up in their giant ass law book that they carry in their cars about what the door windows could be. And it said that atlest 85% of light must go through still which is pretty much pointless to even tint. and the windshield cant have any tint on it. So yeah cali sucks with these laws but i will stille be doing my windows again.
