I know this topic has been brought up in the past but I’m asking anyway and appreciate the advice.
I see a lot of trucks/cars with illegal tint on the front windows around town. How in the world do they get yearly inspection stickers? Obviously some places don’t care or check for that when giving out stickers. Can you recommend a few places? Legal tint in Louisiana doesn’t justify paying for it- it blocks some sun yes but no privacy

Illegal tint is trashy, so is asking where you can get it approved.

People should be able to tint their windows darker than the law allows.

If a vehicle is an extension of your home it should be our right to choose.

Lots of inspection stations don’t actually inspect vehicles. They sell window stickers and the state or city government makes money from the sale. Then if you’re ticketed by law enforcement for illegal tint, the government makes money from that ticket. Do you see the common denominator?

Sounds exactly like something a cop would say

Didn't know this was still a thing in some states, heck I bought my car (new) from the dealer and it already had the windows tinted.

Roll your windows down and then use the lock window button when you go to the inspection place.

simple, you have no real idea what the window tint law really is

cops love writing tickets so they dont have to actually do any police work like arrest criminals, if they are all running around with illegal tint as you say, they wouldnt last a week without a ticket and have to peel it off right there in front of the cop

Maybe, just maybe, they get the windshield tinted AFTER they get the sticker.

. If that works where you go they must the dumbest ppl on earth. What you need to do is take fuse out for the power windows.

Get your windows tinted right after you get a 2 year inspection sticker. Just peel off and re-tint the front windows every 2 years.
