Did you get a "fix it ticket?" I'm assuming so. There are two choices because you have to get rid of the ticket.
1) If you pay the ticket you dont have to take it off. But you may just get caught again and get another ticket.
3) Otherwise you have the option of taking off the tint and stopping by your local PD that wrote the ticket. They will inspect your vehicle and void out the ticket so you don't have to pay anything.

I got pulled over for this and got a ticket back fresh out of HS in my black on black Probe with I think it was 10% tint all around, The "rent-a-cop" was an ass and and the whole town was sick of him. But there was nothing I could do about it. I took the tint off my front windows and had that part of the ticket written off. But there was no way I was going to pull the tint off my huge back window and destroy my defrosting strips. So I paid that part of the ticket off.
Needless to say a couple of months later the same temp cop pulled me over for something else that was not illegal and complete BS (long story, involving the officer fabricating parts of his version). I was supposed to go to court and had all kinds of evidence and an 50 signature petition against the city for what I was pulled over for (again, long story) In the end, the city attorney caught wind of the case I was building against the city. He got scared because of the potential damage I could do and called me up and offered to drop all charges and offer an offical apology from the city. I accepted and the Next thing I knew the Officer was kicked off the force.

I CELEBRATED BY RE-TINTING MY FRONT WINDOWS. Never had an issue again.
