    this is NJ tint laws as i know them, but you wouldn't pass inspection if the law was not changed.

    Tint Laws
    Keep in mind, cities and counties can have different laws than the state law. Houston is that way. My inspector and several others have told me that if I meet the state standard, they will pass it. I know an HPD officer and he told me that as long as my tint meets the state law and isn't retardedly dark, they won't even pay attention. The only time I have been bother was by a state DPS trooper. When I asked him to meter it because I had instructed the shop to make it legal, he backed off and told me no big deal, but he "felt" it was too dark. Always ask them to meter it if you think you are within the limits. My buddy who is a cop pointed out that having your back windows really dark can make it look like your front windows are darker or might be what pushes them to write you a ticket instead of just pointing out that it looks a little dark.

    I would be a bit skeptical of what that site says. Per the Texas DPS website, the rear windows have no limit on how dark, but the website you listed states they mush be 25%. I would check your states website directly to make sure you are getting good information. TxDPS - VI Window Tint Program
