what are the laws in NYC for window tints on the front door?? i want to get 35% - is that good - will i get pulled over???

You might want to contact your local police department or highway patrol...

You don't want to get an "its okay" here and then get pulled over and pay a fine just because someone here said it was ok...

I live in Arizona so laws here are way different than there...

Just did a quick search for "New York window tint law", I'll let you draw your own conclusions,as there is a bill pending to allow $50,000 to enforce tint laws. Good luck, George

as of right now, seeing that a nice officer told me..lol, front door windows must allow 75% light threw on 93+ cars/trucks and 92- cars/trucks must allow 25% light threw. But it might be different in NYC then upstate NY so I'd either ask a cop or check with a tint shop.

i just got 75% in front - i will ask a cop when i get pulled over

Why the difference in years??

[RoushRacen]

I'm not really sure whats the deal in years, I found out when a friend of the family who is a cop told me my 93 Ranger was very illeagal. That sucked big time seeing I just had them done a couple days before.

That sucks...but it will be cheaper to replace than to pay for a ticket...How much did you pay for the tint?

i had to scrape tint off my tbird, as i was pulled over for it being too dark. When the officer inspected the car, to prove a point he brought out his tint meter, it showed 76 percent with no tint. He then explained to me that the factory puts tint in the glass for a/c equipped vehicles, and the law leaves very little room for aftermarket tint.

at the time I paid $200 for the whole truck but that was 5 years ago and luckly prices have dropped...lol.

I found a web site with tint laws www.iwfa.com this should help some. Go to the home page and scroll down to the state laws.
