What is funny about this law is I have a friend that does stuff for the NYPD cars. He said they have to pull the tints of Detective cars and other police cars because they won't pass inspection either lol.

Worsted case scenario everyone go on Google and type in pre cut tint for 2015 mustang, buy it get your inspection and reapply , it's not hard since there's no frame on top of the glass on Windows. 20 or 30 bucks for the set

Good.


I've heard it go both ways, plenty of people with tints passing and plenty that aren't.

The thing that frustrates me the most!!! OMG!!!! I've had plenty of mustangs in the past, no cats, drag tires, you name it for reason's i had to get "fudged" inspections. AND i purposely bought this one to not have to worry about a damn thing. Buy a nice car, drive it, no modifications and be happy with it. AND nys has to go do this, UGH i hate NYS. I'm half tempted to just peal it off. I still got the back at 5%. Wait till they change that. IMHO having 5% in the back is more dangerous then anything on the sides to a cop. While your slowing down to pull over you could be moving around getting or hiding something and the cop would never be able to so you. Stupid money grab!

It's not just inspection time any more.
I got pulled over 3 times in the last 2 days just for the tint (NYPD)
I have 40% all around.
First 2 were warnings, same day.
Today was a ticket. $50
The cops all had tint meters.

This is obviously a targeted initiative.

^^thats 40%? doesnt look to dark, might be time to find a new route to work!
Doesn't matter, NY doesn't make laws that make sense. They come up with some random number and pass the law.

Just remember it's never actually about safety. For anybody.
