Never got a ticket for any of my tint. Never got harassed either.

I am about to add 5% over top of the 20% privacy glass in my jeep. I am putting 35% on the front 2 because they check tint with a meter during state inspections here

My experience in VA is that if you have tint you're gonna get pulled over. That being said I have only lived in Northern VA where theres more cops than people. Soooo theres that.

I had 25% on my front windows in my truck and limo on the rear windows and back glass. I got pulled over three times...for tint...then they would measure my lift...and tell me I was speeding....(full disclosure it had the DUMBEST sticker on the back from a shop that I was friends with at the time...totally not worth it, just makes you a big ol' target IMHO)

So I don't run tint anymore, its just another thing for them to harrass you for. That being said I loved having tint so if you stay within the law they may pull you over for it but they won't ticket you. Be careful since your stock glass probably has some tint on it already, make sure you test it before so you make sure you're within the limit. And its different in VA for cars and trucks of course.

I never had an issue in VA for the 12+ yrs I drove my cars there. Unless something has changed they aren't supposed to be able to pull you over for tint alone.

Im in california.

I have limo, i roll my windows down near cops if i see them. When i get pulled over at night i immediatly turn on my interior lights & roll my windows down. If i get a ticket, (fix it ticket) i pay the fine remove the tint & get it put back on. Last two times i was pulled over were because the cops thought i was a possible DUI and i didn't get a ticket.

My Suburban got pulled over lots in my small town, I have 20% drivers, 5% everything else, and a low brow. peeled it once after about 3 weeks and 5 stops. although that could be just because it looks like a stereotypical "drug dealer" vehicle, Im always super respectful and cooperative with them when they pull me for anything, and to be honest thats half the battle. never got a ticket, but one officer warned me twice and said if he caught me again he would impound, that was enough for me to peel it.

fast forward 6 months, I moved to the city, got it put back on. I can play dumb to 1000 different cops, but you cant play dumb to the same one twice. haven't been bothered since.

Just for reference:
