Window tinting laws

Post by robdog »

Anyone know the window tinting law in Pennsylvania? I have 35% all around. People have told me that you can have everything tinted except the driver and passenger windows(front). Is this true and can I get pulled over for this?

In NY you can have all tinted but the windshield, driver and passenger doors. In my last car I had 35% tint all around and never had a problem. I was pulled over once for a seatbelt and the cop didn't say anything about the tint. My Vibe is now tinted 35% all around and I have not had a problem yet.

Im from NY, so i have 35% on the driver side and passenger side windows, AND then i got a nice dark 20% on the rest of the windows (expluding the windsheild), and with the dark enterior of my car the 20% looks almost pitch black and the 35% looks awesome.
