This is awesome, especially for the ball sweating summers in LA.

Now, you can get 25% as opposed to the previous 40%.

Has anyone ever actually put 40% on a car?

And cops can still have 5% so they can sleep in parking lots undetected

That’s great, now my car is finally legal, lol. I haven’t been legal for the last 10 years. Every 2 years, I had to ask around for the couple of places that wouldn’t check and just rubber stamped my brake tags. Speaking of brake tags, when is the bill getting passed, that eliminates that scam?

As long as the driver can see out, I don't see why this was ever a thing.

Darker tint only helps stay cool in the summertime here.

Been riding around without one for as long as I can remember.

Have not had one issue.

When I was even stopped a couple of times, I was not asked about it.

So close....20% wrapped ceramic is perfect for heat and glare.

So for windshields?

I've been wondering what can be done to protect us in our cars from all the videos cameras, especially now that cars have video rear view mirrors. Recordings I'm sure getting kept, and being uploaded to the manufacturers servers.

I currently have 5% tint all around except for the front windshield. I like how the uniform tint looks — it gives the vehicle a sleek, cohesive appearance and provides great privacy. My vehicle is not registered in Louisiana, and I don't have to worry about getting an inspection sticker.

I think opting for 25% tint all around would look just as good. I’ve never really liked the way it looks when the front, back, and rear windows all have different tint levels — it just feels kind of patchy and unfinished.

Have had blacked out windows for a very very long time. The bill doesn’t change much for me.

Our lawmakers at both the federal and state levels are something, aren’t they folks. They continue to take on the tough, hard-hitting problems in our society today.

Can we get a bill to require public parking spaces to be widened by four inches? I’m kinda tired of idiots opening their car doors and hitting my truck.
