god damn 15% is dark. I need to get my new car tented. I'm sick of big trucks headlights.

Correct!


35% up front was a long time ago. Its now 50.

I have 20 all the way around. Only got pulled for it once when when the cop Put the meter up to it, it read 10%....so just make sure you guys factor in the percentage of tint in the glass from the factory.

Where have any of you got pulled over (talking to anyone ever pulled over for tint.) , i have only heard of peope getting pulled for it at the strip. I had 20% all around my old 4 dr. and never got pulled, of course i always rolled the windows down at the strip and luckily a cop never said anything about the back window.

Damn what a bitch to get pulled over on gb and the interstate. That is prolly just plane shitty luck. My guess is you have platinum (mirror) tint. That is what will really cath a cops eye as opposed to a black or a smoke.
