i am getting my windows tinted in two weeks..now, i know it is completely illegal however, isn't there a specific percentage (35%) or something that i can just get away with? i don't want it too dark.. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

35% all the way around is perfectly legal. Depending on what color you choose (silver, black, charcoal), you may be able to have 20% on the hatch. I have charcoal 35%/mirror 50% in the front and 20% charcoal in the back and its perfectly legal. I added the mirror because you could still see into the car without it. <P>On a side note, make sure whoever does your tint uses the metallic film, not your standard fade away film. You may pay more but it'll last forever.

every state differs when it comes to window tinting. check this out for your local laws: <A HREF="http://www.tintdude.com/laws.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.tintdude.com/laws.html</A>
