Depends on the laws of your state. In Texas it went from 25-35% for the side windows, I believe. I got away with for years. DPS and others carry a meter. Annual inspections are also a problem. The state has been cracking down on them as well. The other windows can be painted black if you choose. I have 5% on the rear glass.
