What is the legal limit for window tint?
A window of a vehicle that is operated on a highway or a public vehicular area shall comply with these restrictions. The window of the vehicle may be tinted only along the top of the windshield and the tinting may not extend more than five (5) inches below the top of the windhsield, or below the AS1 line of the windshield, whichever measurement is longer. Provided, however, an untinted clear film which does not obstruct vision but which reduces or eliminates ultraviolet radiation from entering a vehicle may be applied to the windshield. Any other window of the vehicle may be tinted in accordance with the following restrictions:
1. The total light transmission of the tinted window shall be at least thirty-five percent (35%). A vehicle that, by use of a light meter approved by the Commissioner, measures a total light transmission of more than thiry-two percent (32%) is conclusively presumed to meet this restriction.
2. The light reflectance of the tinted window must be twenty percent (20%) or less.
3. Tinted film or another material used to tint the window shall be nonreflective and shall not be red, yellow, or amber.
