Windscreens must let in 75% of light, front side windows 70% - original factory fitted windows will be fine, but any sort of after-sales treatment may be too dark.

If you have a 2nd hand car try to contact the original owner to see if the tint is 'factory standard'. If you can't (or they don't know)then get it checked out at a reputable garage to be on the safe side.

My car in la had tinted windows and I was worried about getting fined for it. So when I took it in to get the stereo put in, I asked the guy if he could remove the tinting as I was worried about getting pulled over by the police. He laughed and said that I was far too white and far too female for the police to bother with me over tinted windows. I don't know if that is the same thing here.
