I don't think I've ever seen a car with a windshield tinted dark. I can't believe it would be a good idea.....

In Missouri they recently changed the window tinting law and made it legal to tint any of the windows including the front to a 35% limit. Technically anything less then 35% on any of the windows would be illegal.

ok guys, i am not puting limo tint on the front window. it is going to be 35% and hardly makes a difference in night time driving. like one person said in this thread that all it does is cut down the heat coming threw the front window. the rest of the windows will be 15%

i just didn't know if it would hurt it. i will post pics when its done to let you all see

and yes, it is illegal but on 4 of the vehicals i have had this done on, none have been pulled over for it
