Thanks for fast replies. I'm trying to decide if I should risk it, or not.

Damn, that sucks. I'm usually going to and from South Bay to Pt. Loma. Usually just drive the limit. I don't want to draw any unnecessary attention to myself. This car draws attention anyway. No need to up the ante.

I've been driving with tinted windows for 10 years. I've just made a habit of rolling down the windows before a cop can see them.

Sucks to hear

I've only been hassled once about my tint to which I replied "What tint? I don't see any tint."

I was in a private parking lot owned by my better half's father, so there wasn't much the cop could do about it.

Ok, y'all help me out here. My math skills aren't what the used to be....if I have 25% tint all the way around. Does that mean it blocks 75% of light coming in or what? Go ahead and laugh. I've never had tint on my car so.....
