So i got a tint ticket on the 5th...havent done anything, (windows are how i got them, when i got the car from White Bear Lincoln Mercury....originally sold in Cali.) well according to the Trooper's tint meter im runnin 16% VLT...

So......what is Dark Dan's number, and pricing for a legal tint job on an SVt?!
(haven't changed anything, yet...just lookin at the legal option, as opposed to runnin the illegals with chances of more tickets)

Thanks,
Matt

that's fucked up. just a warning or a ticket ticket? i guess if you can prove that's how you bought it from the dealer you could get out of it.

nope, not a warning...actual citation. the trooper even asked if i bought it from a dealer or private party...AND...he pulled off to the shoulder so i could get in front of him, so he could pull me over...it was 730 in the am...wtf?! I wasnt speedin, i had the cruise set at 60 in a 65, and wasnt doing ANYTHING illegal...ugh pissed me off. Thanks for the info.

State has issues with that... sounds like exactly what happend to me. The dealer will pay for half of the ticket if you go back and bitch, cause they'll say that you knew about it when you bought it.

Oh bye the way guess what -it goes on your record like a moving violation in lovely Minnesota. That really sucks cause it can mess up your insurance. If you have just resently purchased the car I would fight it-throwing the dealer to the wolves. Especially if you have other tickets on your record!--Bob

The cop that recently tagged me actually had me roll my windows up to check them...but he did'nt have a meter...he just saw they were kinda dark.

I'm just going to go in and get a presc from eye doctor...fuck it...

Tousley actually removes dark tint if it's on the car when it comes in, my car had tint before I got it and I saw it in the pics they first took of the car when it came in and they posted it on the website.

Well if you unplug the wiring harness from the driver switch (at least on the Contour) the windows won't work from any of the other switches either... So he can't make me roll them up
