May not work, as I'm sure however it happened was a specific set of circumstances, but my buddy recently had the same thing happen to him, and when he went to the PD to show he had removed the tint according to the tickets instructions, he just had grabbed some old cheap tint laying around the shop, crumbled it up into a ball and showed them that and that was the end of it. Even though he still has the illegal % of tint on the car.
However, I personally would just follow the local laws of legal tint limits or closely as possible. For example, 5% all around or something is just asking for it.
