In-Channel vs Tape On Vent Visors

[Pitt Yaris]

Many trucks or suvs including my parents come with darker factory tint than law. Wonder if someone could use that excuse with a yaris.

Perhaps. But I'm thinking the cop is going to make you pull out the original sticker to see that "privacy glass" was part of the option. If you reply with "I tossed that when I bought the car," then you're pretty much SOL.

i know some factory tint is actually tint in the glass, you cant remove it. so when you tint those as well, its darker than the chosen tint.

Yea, that's what I was referring to. Some factory cars come with tinted glass that is darker than that state's legal limit. What is one to do? Get new windows?

Dont worry Kaotic, I've got a 2nd fix-it ticket for my tints....but at college twice lol. 2nd time the officer said i cant have any, so i replied yea i can, legal limit is 35%...so he measures the light coming in~ I'm keeping my tints on FOR LIFE :).

Go with the tape on vent visors. My in-channel ones flew out bro, I want stick on ones. Let me know which company you get it from. I'm debating on the ones from TRD Sparks...fuck weathertech....>_>

LOL, I was thinking about going with AVS or Weathertech. hahaha....hold up, I thought that it was 70% for front tint in Cali, and 35% for those stick on (the ones with those suction cups)????? Can you show me that CVC???? That way I can print it out and kindly shove it in the cops face. hahahaha.

You're right, it's 70% for tint (CVC 26708[d][2]) and the stick on sunshades are 35%. (CVC 26708.2)

I don't bother these days, it's an opportunity to get pulled over and get written up for pretty much anything that's modified.

Well, that puts me back to vent visors and no front tint.
