they are illegal. how many times do people have to say any tint that didn't come from factory in front of the B pillar is illegal before people understand it

none of the tints in this thread are legal =\ what someone said earlier about tinting on the front is correct. its not legally allowed and if its done it will look no different then a normal glass window

If front tints are illegal should that mean that it should be illegal to wear sunglasses whilst driving?

Wasting there time? As if they do fuck all - if anything they got nout to do so they waste your time - If it was illegal there and then they would of just ticketed you on the spot.
