Does anyone happen to know the percentage tint the factory glass in the front doors are?
Reason I'm asking:
I understand the factory glass up front IS tinted, and obviously allows a very high amount of light to pass. ?Like 75-95% or so. ?It's still tinted enough to be rated.
Massachusetts has laws stating tint on the drivers and passengers doors must not exceed (block... or "be under") a 35% rating.
I'm looking at the pre-cut tint on Ebay... which can be had at 35%.
When I go for my yearly inspection sticker - they'll check aftermarket tint like this with some sort of a special device that detects the amount of light that will pass through the tint. ?
35% aftermarket tint on top of ~85% factory tinted glass will probably not be legal. ?
Just trying to work this out before hand!
Thanks.
