What's the maximum percentage of tint you can have for your windows in the UK?.

I know your not allowed to tint the front window (or at least not much), but what about the front two side windows?.

Any info is apreicated, thanks.

What is allowed and what is installed is quite different things. Very often people ask OutLaw TintZ.......

But allowed % is:

Windshield - 25%

Drivers left and right - 30%.

according to my local VOSA guys the law is this.... no film whatsoever forward of the B pillar. I also believe that there is a directive from VOSA to all UK mot testing stations asking them to squeel on any tint firm they are aware of that tint front door windows!

just checked the vosa web pages.... it actually says to all MOT stations.... "if you know of any tint firm or vehicle retailer offering to either tint or sell cars already tinted beyond the legal limits" to tell them they are breaking the law.

so no they didnt ask for them to squeel it appears to be more of an informative thing.
