OK -- Here is the info ...
The vehicle was bought in Alabama in 2002, and I live in Mississippi.
Current laws (revised 08/05, used to be 25%) in Mississippi state minimum
side window transmission is 30% as measured by hand-held equipment.
Measured value of my vehicle is 29.6 at one testing station, and 29.8 at
another. Front and rear windows are not a problem because the tint in
manufactured into the glass. The tint is not the silvered type, nor is it
like what you find on "limos", it simply reduces the amount of UV glare and
heat transmission.

Guys, this person has a serious prob, let's stay on topic ( I do likeTinting
harleys too just for the record, lol). Mike, you do need to find out
specifically what this new law states, specifically what the percentage of
tinting allowed is and what windows the law applies to, front, passenger,
etc. Secondly, Saturn does not tint windows in the factory, period.
is a dealer option and at the time, as you say was legal as applied.take
What state do live in? Perhaps if you ststed that, someone here lives in
that state and can help you better. As far as the tint itself, I would
the car back tot he dealer, explain the problem and see if they can assistprofessionals
you in having the tin either reduced or removed by the tinting
(which is a 3rd party). It will be a simple job for them and far less
expensive than tickets and inspection failures.
Just FYI, for example, here in FL window tinting must be 20% visibility on
the drivers and front passengers windows and it is illegal to have a strip
on the front windshield beyond the mirror or oem mark on the window. This
difers in many other states.
