PA area. what % of tint do you guys have? any troubles?
 

hello, im about to install 35% tints on my windows and i was wondering what percentage everyone else had in PA. Any troubles with the cops?

you should have no trouble at all with 35%. its not dark at all. i had 15% in my suzuki swift and never got pulled over in philadelphia, but one time when i went to an autocross event in warminster i got a ticket for it. i currently have 15% on my civic and have had no trouble.

piece of advise though, if you leave philly. try to have your windows down if you get 15% or lower.

I have been busted with 25% and 35%. Depends how anal the cop is that day. If I were you no darker than 35%. They generally want to be able to look in one side like the passenger window and see through the other side of your drivers window.

i have 15%

i have 15... pulled over once...

Had 22% on the suby for two and a half years before a cop ever said anything to me. And he only did it because he had nothing else to get me on other than a bad registration sticker.

Been pulled over racing, speeding, etc and they never once said anything to me about it.

20% got pulled over once $108 ticket

I have 35%... I've been pulled over 2x in Newtown for it and never anywhere else. Grr to Newtown.

1st time I got pulled over was at like 3am in the middle of a bad snowstorm in downtown Newtown. Cop was behind me and said he was looking in my sideview and couldnt see my face. WTF, my sideview was half covered in ice. Told me it was my 1 warning and if I got pulled over in Netwown again for tint it would be $105 per window.

2nd time I got pulled over on the bypass at night where the speed limit is like 55. What cop is looking for tint at night on the bypass? He grilled me about this 'suspicious paper' I had in the backseat. Sheet of yellow legal paper with basically a shopping list. He asked to look at it and I was like sure, he analyzed, asked me a few questions, and then let me go. Told me it was my 1 warning, and if I ever got pulled over again, yadda yadda... :rotfl:

i had 15% on my old car in quakertown pa... got pulled over three times. First time got a fine from a state trooper $200 and somthing idk. second time in a sting operation leaving school, and the third time they made me take it off. At least 5 of my friends have been pulled over, there tint ranging from 10-35%

30% and have never had a problem

I have 20% on my door/rear quarter windows and 15% on my rear windsheild and windsheild strip... haven't gotten bothered yet. Hasn't even been mentioned during other stops.

i have 20%....i live in whitpain...they've pulled me over 4 times usually when it was raining....got 2 tickets...whitpain officers just have nothing better to do..

idk what mine is but you cant see threw it on sunny days from the outside so its pretty dark, no problems though.

I had 30% on my mazda6 never had a problem, in fact if i would get 20% on my cobra if i had side dough

20%, got pulled over once in Abington but no ticket. The cop was 100% clueless to tint laws except that "I'm pretty sure none of this stuff is legal" but wound up being cool.

20 and 25% and in 3 years have never been harassed in newtown. knock on wood

lololol. suspicious paper. he thought you had directions to make a bomb hahahaha. wtf.

my tint was faded but it was between 20 somethign and 35 on front windows. was 2 door car. rear window was dark as $hit. so your deff fine with 35%. as long as its not colord. it looks like a hairy terd and i belive its illegal. deff get pulled over for that

Have 5% on my car which is black, haven't been bothered in the least bit in the 8 years I've had it.

Within the past month wifey took the car out and stepped 2 feet into Tullytown Borough and got nabbed. I have been to events in the Tullytown parking lot multiple times with the tint the way it is, I head to Penn Warner and drive down main street way to many times during the summer and have never had a problem, go figure- sorry wifey.

Wifey used to have a black beretta with 35% or 25%, I forget which- She was hasseled in Horsham leaving work one day so she tore it off that night. Never got a ticket or warning but what a mess-

old truck had 35 on the sides and 15 on the back...i had my window cracked one day in the winter and a cop of a nearby township was staring me down the whole time i was driving past him. Two years and no troubles.

New truck i've had 22% all around for a few months, no one has said anything yet. I think it's similar to my old tint, since i used to have darker back and lighter sides, and now it's darker sides and lighter back.
