Are you saying that in these states (like TN, for example), they can't enforce their tint laws for out of state cars? So, if an out of state car had a lower level tint than what is legal in their states, they can't cite the driver?
@markology you might want to double check your laws. I believe the max allowed in Iowa is 70% for the side windows. That would be the sum of the factory tinted glass plus whatever tint you put on.
Thank you for that. I thought I was reading Iowa wrong. So, if I got 35%, I would be in violate of Iowa? Is that how we read this? 35% means only 35% of sunlight or UV gets in, right?
Yep, 35% isn't going to be legal. I usually put on 50% and I haven't had a problem. It is light enough that even the hard ass cops don't really care. Not nearly as dark as I'd like but it is more important that I don't get pulled over.
Great point. I am from MD but lived in Philly. I remember once I was pulled over for no front tag in Philadelphia. When the officer realized that I had out of state plates he let me go and reminded me that in PA you have to have two tags...the irony is you have to have 2 in MD, too... I just didn't feel like installing my front plate!
Ahh. Got it. Still scares me to put on 50. I wonder what the experience of other drivers in Iowa is.
