When I studied and passed my State Inspection exam, there was a very grey area called window tint. The instructor was very knowlegable and informative of grey areas and small, easily missed inspection items (such as DOT approval via either paper documentation or physical markings on steel braided brake lines). However, he was not able to give a strait answer on how to tint ones windows while staying inside the legal lines.

It has been a few years now, and i just got my renewed Inspection license in the mail which reminded me of this question.

What are the guidelines for tinting windows in PA?

§4524(e)(1) - Sun screening and other materials prohibited

Don't tint your windows and you wont have to worry about if your legal or not
