I need to replace the tint on my windshield. I know that texas requires a script to get it done. My car is reg in OK so texas law doesnt really apply to my ride. are there any tinters that can make that happen for me? PM if needed.

Are you trying to tint below the A line?

**5PointSlow** · 06-13-2013, 05:37 PM

yup full front windshield. nothing ridiculous dark but tinted none the less

I suspect that if Texas police question your tint, you will either have to produce the doctor's order or take the ticket.
I doubt that "I'm from Oklahoma" will cut it with them.

not really all that concerned about that. I am more concerned with getting my windshield retinted. I will tell you though that because my car is registered in another state they would be less likely to ticket me for that. That would be like ticketing me for having no front plate when my state doesnt require one.

Haha that's hat they tell me about my tail lights! Just because its legal in OK doesn't make it legal in tx.. Sorry OP, you can try mobile tinters, or drive to shitty Dallas an walk in somewhere.

Also dan12gt has a mobile buddy who does tint that might do it..?

Not saying I havent had illegal tint, but no state allows a full windshield. People in OK get away with it because they don't have an anual inspection.

is your car registered in Tx? Im not really here to debate the law, I just wonder if there is someone that is local that would be willing to do it. Im a military cop and I know for a fact when I was in South Carolina I could not legally enforce SC tint laws on a car that is not a SC regged car. That may be different here, but chances are the cops wont really mess with it. plus the level I had it at when the windows are down you cant tell its tinted anyway. On top of that if I get pulled over for something chances are they are not going to be really concerned about my window tint!! lol

I hear you and I'm not trying to debate, just the legal in ok comment is along te lines of 5 traffic stops for my tail lights. Like I said, the majority of the mobile guys will do it, since really who gives a shit? Your car..

Easy answer to that - the blood sucking lawyer who represents the family in a car who has a wreck with a car that has a tinted windshield.
"Your honor, the defendant could not see my client due to the illegal tinting on his windshield."
As long as I'm not involved, I don't care.
