[W126 Coupe] Window Tint

[eurotech1 at charter.net]

Thank God I live in a state that doesn't pull that kind of crap. I see all shades of tint, from light to limo dark tint, and all kinds of colored mirror tints on cars around here. There are tint gradient laws, but they're never enforced. We don't have inspections, either. The downside is, you've got people running around with inoperative safety equipment (a head light out, no tail lights or brake lights, etc.), bald tires, cracked windshields, etc. If you're pulled over for a traffic violation, and the cop notices any of this, however, he can ticket you, and then you have to get it fixed!

                        Later,
                        Chris
