Thanks,

pardon my ignorance...
what kind of inspection was this?

right now im thinking its a state vehicle inspection. if so thats got to be a BIGGER PITA than removing it once, that you may have to do it every year or 2?

enlightne me please...[/b]
Yes, unfortunately.

State motor vehicle inspection has to be done every two years for older vehicles. For brand new cars it is after 4 years.

In NJ it "technically" illegal to have tinted windows. Even though there are thousands of vehicles out there with them. It all depends on what police want to enforce it. There are some towns that are asses about it; others, eh, could care less.

I have had the windows tinted since I got the truck in 2000. I got lucky in 2002 that the guy at the station did not roll up my windows. smile This July I did not get so lucky. frown Oh well. If that is the only thing my truck failed for I am happy. In NJ, the are real pains in the asses for failing things. Probably second to California in strictness. In 2002 they questioned me about my Jim Wolf Popcharger (open air element) that I have.

FYI, my tint was the same as the side and rear window. Not limo tint. Way too dark for nighttime driving.
