NYS Tint (2009 model question)

Justin1686

So, I did a quick search, and considering the specificity of my question, figured i'd post up a new question. Apologies if this was discussed recently.

I have a 2009 Nissan Z (you can see all/more info in my sig), and my car is due for inspection. I was completely unaware of the NYS law starting this year about tints (I don't live where the car is located anymore, so it's more of a vacation car for me when visiting my parents).

I have to peel my tints as they only allow 40% thru (NYS law says it must allow 70%). The place who did them is taking them off (clearly not for free as it was 8 years ago that it got done), and asked if i want to put back on. I am NOT in the mood to play the game of peeling and replacing every year, it doesnt make sense to me.

So the main question is, who knows what the stock % of light coming through is on a 2009 Z?

My nissan dealer said they come stock at 70% and I called ******** as my car is 8 years old, not new (the new ones do, they come at 72% as he took a meter to 2 cars in the showroom). I want to know before i have to make excess trips if it makes sense to put on 75% tints, so i'm not driving a fishbowl.

Thanks!
