Window Tinting Info

This should be a sticky, seems to be a popular question. But here are 2 sites that are recently updated with state by state tint info

ya i wanna tint my 95 Z-28, but i live in Livonia, MI and the cops here are ******* gay as hell. I think the law is that you can tint everything except the windshield.

I also live in Florida and have had zero problems with cops about my tint (they also have backed off on going five miles over, which is nice, used to get tickets all the time). I have the sides tinted Limo 15% and the brow tinted 30% (I think it's 30%).

I'm actually quite suprised. Some of those laws must be out of date because I always thought LA's tint laws were more strict.

Hmm. Last I checked, you could have your rear window as dark as you like, as long as you have side mirrors. That's what I was told, and why I only got a ticket for my front windows being 10% and not the rear.
