Hey guys i'm going to get my windows tinted tomorrow up in hargerstown...I was thinking about getting 20 percent charcoal put on my windows...Do any of you have 20 percent or even darker? If so, have you gotten pulled over for it?

Thanks,
Jason

I do not personaly have tint but I do know some people in the hagersbush area that do or did have tint. The only ones I know that got pulled over for it where the ones that crusised the dual late at night and got pulled over and ticketed for it. The other people that I know with tint have not been bothered by anybody about it but YMMV.

I used to have 20 on my old car and got pulled over all the time her ein Rockville.

Finally ended up getting a repair order and had to have it stripped.

35% now and no problems.

Ask Ant! He has had to take it off twice! I have 35% and it's just fine for me! I'm glad I didn't go darker and being legal you get a warranty!

Andy W. The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Ditto!! I just went legal and haven't been pulled over. Save yourself some trouble and just stick with Maryland Law.

Well I went with 20 percent charcoal anyways! It looks really awesome, even though I may be on here in 2 months bit**ing saying my tint has to be ripped off. But I love it, the guy spent 3 hours on my car, you cannot even see a edge at any of the windows! I went to Undercover Tint in hagerstown, md!

I have 5% on all my windows and dont get hassled too badly, usually only when Ive already been pulled over for something else. IVe only been pulled over once in 4 years just for the tint, usually county cops are the ones who care, Ive been pulled over by state troops twice and they didnt say a thing

I asked a cop how you can get darker tinted windows leagally, he said its easy go get a sticker that has said your windows have passed inspection, then go get the tint darker, or just do the back windows, get the sticker and then do the front....Has anybody seen the cars that look to have there front windows tinted too....
