Hey guys, I know that it is illegal for the front windows to be tinted but how much hassle have the cops gave you for having them done? Thanks.

Illegal in Illinois also
It's illegal here in Illinois also. But, I went to my Dermatologist and had him write me a letter about how I need tint since skin cancer runs in my family. Did that in 96 and have never had a problem since.

I have limo all around and 45% on the front windshield, I have been stopped by 3 cops, 2 complained about my limo, one complimented me on all of them. I told them it seems darker because I did my front windshield and they said it doesn't even look like it's tinted. They don't care about the front windshield so much as they do the sides.

5% all around never been stopped by the cops, been pulled over once for speeding, only thing he bitched about besides my speed was the nitrous. I had 5% all around on my Cobalt SS/SC and only thing i got pulled over for was my exhaust was to loud before i got it welded up, didnt say anything about tint.
From what my friend told me when i first moved to edmonton is, if you dont act like a retard on the streets, cops wont normally bother you. Heres tint on both my cars...

I had 35% tint on '99 Mustang, and did not receive a ticket in the 3 years I drove it.
Also 35% tint on a '03 G35, and received 2 tickets in the last 7 years ... most recent two weeks ago for $57 ... I'll take that ib. |
