Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Got pulled over for it before So did I on a car I bought with the tint on it. I got a ticket that I could only deal with by removing the tint, having the cops certify it was gone and going in front of the Judge to get the ticket vacated. I realize ignorance of the law is no excuse, but........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 If you get pulled over more than once with the same car, the fine doubles....then triples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 For those that receeive the tickets... Did the cop have a light meter? We all know there is certain criteria for tinting. Curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charmed Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 For those that receeive the tickets... Did the cop have a light meter? We all know there is certain criteria for tinting. Curious. Nope, got pulled over towards the Rochester/Buffalo area going through a checkpoint. His light meter was his eyes looking into my backseat!! @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BC Voice of Reason Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I had Tint Conditions on McKinley in Endicott tint my truck windows about 7 years ago. Still looks good and zero tickets -- knock on wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Here you go. Check out the legal limits http://www.tintdude.com/laws.html @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Here you go. Check out the legal limits http://www.tintdude.com/laws.html @ I got pulled over for it at least five times... i know i should have learned my lesson after the first couple times. Anyway, they have to let a certain percentage of light through, i think its around 80 percent. Mine only let 6 percent through, so I could never talk myself out of those tickets haha! Eventually I realized it was just stupid and I tore off the tint and they left me alone ) @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 I got pulled over once. Are you looking for a place to get your window tinted? Yes, sorry, I should've stated that in the first post....but I'm really lazy. I wanted to tint my windows so people can't watch me driving and beating my kids. (no I don't beat my kids) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Window tinting greatly reduces the cost for air conditioning in a car. With the windows tinted, less power is utilized to keep the interior at a comfortable temp. I like brown tinting, since it is see through when the sun is brightest and therefore legal.

bloodthirst Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 The tint looks like crap after a while when it gets air bubbles in it. @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I find it amazing that these same tinted windows would be acceptable in Florida but they are illegal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I find it amazing that these same tinted windows would be acceptable in Florida but they are illegal here. Maybe it's because they have sun in Florida and the only reason someone wants it here is to hide what is going on inside the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 as long as you don't have the drivers side and passengers side and front windshield darkly tinted you can have the rest done without problem I think the legal amount for those is 30 or 35 which most cars already have from the factory. I've had two cars tinted at tint condition in endicott. They are really great people who do an excellent job. first car i had tinted in 20 all the way around (years ago) and i did get pulled over once but they let me go because i told them i bought the car that way. it's absurd the things they ticket for, but you have to respect the law so just don't darkly tint the windows i mentioned and you're fine... it still looks good.

Guest Guest Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I got my truck tinted at tint condition. They did a great job! Not one air bubble. I shopped around and they have the best price too. @ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
