while some of you haven't been pulled over with darker than legal tint...

you're basically giving a police officer a reason to pull you over...so keep that in mind.

Depends on what window you are talking about. I believe the law only applies to the front windshield and front driver and passengar windows. Check out newer cars on the road sometime. The rear windows are always darker from the factory while the front are real light.
