Posting this as it seems like tint questions get asked every few weeks.

People know it's illegal-- they aren't asking for permission. They're dead set on circumventing it and asking here if anyone has "a guy" more or less or how to take it off and reapply at a lower cost. I've never had tinted windows in any state, so the desire is lost on me (minus someone who posted with Lupus, that really made sense).

If it was legal I would do it. I had it in MA but removed it when I got here... as it was illegal.. *shrugs*. I enjoyed having the UV protection and dark windows but not enough to get a ticket.

Genuine question, but doesn't it make visibility atrocious at night? MA is already like the darkest state I've ever had the displeasure to drive through.

Not for me. Abet my vehicle sits low enough that most trucks and suv headlights pear into my back window so the tint is awesome.

Me personally: my left arm gets darker than my right in the summer without it, my car is significantly cooler in the summer time, not as bright inside the car, some privacy in my car, and most importantly, I don’t want people staring at me while I pick my nose lol.

My tint isn’t that dark though. I followed MA law for tint even though I’m in RI, and cops don’t bust my balls. I’ve been pulled over for other stuff, and they just ignore the tint all together.

I have tinted windows too, a note from a doc that was approved by Cranston DMV so I’m allowed tint. But past 5yrs I’ve never been pulled over for it🤷🏻‍♀️ And I live right next to Bristol police dept

I forgot to mention that I have the same note from my doctor as well. Approved by the DMV and everything. I’ve just never been asked for it. I think it’s because my tint is not as dark as others.

Ya they probably have bigger fish to fry (I’m also in a Buick so I’m not looked at haha) but will be knocking on my tinted windows for luck haha.
