I think in every state it is illegal to tint your windshield below 5-6" from the top,

 

I always have the top, where it is tinted from the factory, and down about a inch tinted limo dark on every truck i have owned. Including the new 09 sCrew. Never had a ticket or even a question about it.

 

do it. i have 5% on my driver and pass. doors. and in the rear suicide doors and back window are factory tint with 5% on top. (nice in dark) im thinking about doing the 35% on my front windshield.

 

i know that one of my buddies has 5% on alll his windows including the whole front window on his white f-250 and it looks good ill see if i can get a picture of it for you and him nor me has never had a ticket about it

 

^^5% on the windshield!?!?! I'm sure it looks cool, but damn if he don't have trouble seeing at night.

He hasn't had a ticket yet because he hasn't met the right cop yet! Ga. State Patrol will certainly hand him a nice one one day. I wish him well, that's just seems too much of a risk to me.

 

accutally its really not that bad with the hid kit i like it myself cuts out all the glare from the lights on other cars lol next time you driving of a night throw on the sunglasses and thats what it looks like lol but it looks bad *** on the da big ol white f-250 haha immma try to get a picture for yall cause its got black and chrome 20s and mudd grappler front and back ranch hands but i think imma tint the front window on my new 2fitty. but yeah the gsp would prolly make him scrap it off if they catch him

 

I've got 15% on all windows and the front windshield. I am very glad that I got the front tinted. I live in FL and the truck would get very hot very quick if I park somewhere.. But now that the front is tinted it makes a huge difference. If you are going to tint the whole windshield, don't go too dark because It is harder to see at night when it rains.. I do have HID's which helps. But I highly recommend doing a darker strip on the top of the windshield, so its not as obvious. Even if you do not go really dark, having even 30% will be a huge advantage for keeping out heat and help protect your dash.

 

that you for the responces other than the "its illegal" ones. I know it is... but thanks i got some good info

 

From the responses, it appears that the enforcement is more lax in the Southern states.

Just to clarify the 'just do it' response from one member.....Here in the great CA, where the CHP force is close to 10,000 strong, the odds are great that you will get popped and the cite (statewide fine schedule) is pretty stiff for this violation.

FYI, being from out of state is no exemption to the law, while operating here.
