What is the max % of tinted glass window allow & still legal?

Question:
I want to buy a new minivan & have the car windows tinted as dark as i can & still within the legal limit. I live in IL,Chicago suburb area. The car factory only has it up to 30% tinted glass. Can I have them do it straight from the factory to make it darker? Wonder will it still be those stick on sheet or they actually tinted the glass itself? I never had these done before.

why is it that when you come to a stop sign and someone is turning they "short corner" you?

Thanks!

I don't yield for SUVs... is this wrong?

It depends on the State, They all have different laws
The southern and western states have laws which lets you have more that 30% tinted
Check with your local Department of Transportation or Secretary of State regarding window tinting
From the Factory, it will be stick on, A professional may do it differently

Totaled cars?

This differs from one jurisdiction to another. Check with your local police - they will know. The plastic sheet tinting is much cheaper, and they have different darkness levels, depending on which windows you are getting it put on. Have a shop do it.

i think all auto manufacturers should be required to install alcohol detectors in their cars...maybe that?

first, need to check on what the laws for tinting are in your neck of the woods. as far as the factory making it darker, they will only add a sheet of tint just like anyone else. the dark window in the back of a minivan or an SUV come from the factory smoked. it is not a film on the glass, the glass itself is darkened, but it is at a preset limit from the manufacturer. any tinting that is done afterwards is by putting a film of tint on the windows. i guess you could spray paint them black, but thats a different story. haha. hope this helps

What is the UK law on towing a car behind a motor caravan?

In general, aftermarket tint is done with the sheets, as they come in various grades, and when done professionally, looks to be a part of the glass, absolutely no bubbles or such, even when placed over defroster lines.

y r all car more red expensive then green car y>?

As many have mentioned, legal limits differ from county to county, state to state. However, in most states, it's illegal to tint the front windshield and the driver/passenger side windows. In Texas you can tint the top six inches of the front windshield. Anything aft of that is fair game.
