I've always lived where the laws say no darker than 35% on the front two Windows. Las Vegas Nevada for 6 years and I ran limo (5%) on all my vehicles. Some of my buddies also had 35% on their windshields. Don't drive stupid around cops and they won't bother you

I use to run 2.5% over 30% with my 11 inch eyebrow that was 5% but I took it off when my gf had to drive it so now I run 20% on the driver and passenger and still have my eyebrow

Dang, all of you guys are asking trouble! Haha I agree with DrillRig52 though - as long as you don't do anything stupid around cops, you should be fine.

just got my front two done today, with a brow. I kept it legal, because where I live since my truck looks like a 19 year olds truck, the driver must be 19 and also must be up to trouble, so i get pulled over for dumb stuff that no one ever gets pulled over for. for instance at thanksgiving i got stopped at about 1am because he "ran my license plate wrong." I know yall are all thinking i was headed to a party but it was just to visit with an old friend. But i always try to be polite with cops and that seems to go a long ways
