Default Window tint

Ive seen some posts about legal tints etc....if you happen to know the legal tint for cali, let me know.

but what i really am wondering about is if i get tint, do i have to install that moleskin stuff? cause people talk about how the stock window squeegy things scratch the tint on their window when they roll them down and up? thanks for the input in advance!

Default RE: Window tint

Can I put after-market tinting on the windows of my vehicle?
The main requirements for legal window tinting in California are:

[*]The windshield and front driver's side and passenger's side windows cannot receive any aftermarket tinting.[*]If the rear window of a vehicle is tinted, the vehicle must have outside rearview mirrors on both sides. [/ol]

The law prohibits any person from driving any motor vehicle with any object or material placed, displayed, installed, affixed, or applied upon the windshield or side or rear windows, with certain limited exceptions.
However, legislation signed into law effective January 1, 1999, exempts from the above prohibition specified clear, colorless, and transparent material that is installed, affixed, or applied to the front driver and passenger side windows for the specific purpose of reducing ultraviolet rays. If, as, or when this material becomes torn, bubbled or otherwise worn, it must be removed or replaced.

and since you can't tint the side windows, you don't need to worry about moleskin.
