Basically all state laws are different so you might as well just ask someone who does inspections in your state to find out for sure. But I can tell you this, when you have tinted windows cops just love to pull you over. I guess they think you're probably hiding something. I had my windows tinted 5 percent when i had my 98 ex and the cops would always screw with me. Finally I was told to remove it, and to make sure i comply with that the police put lacerations on the tint on all my windows. basically it was just a waste of $ for me.
