osiris Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Hi, I live in Illinois and would like clarification on the tint laws. It is my understanding that you can go as low as 35% VLT all the way around the car except the front windshield with a 5% variance. Does that mean 5% of 35, or +-5% as in 30-40%? I'm thinking it's the former, but I remain hopeful 😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 It's usually plus or minus 5points of the stated law. Some places enforce stricter than others. In IL I would keep it close to the letter and use a ceramic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryker Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Illinois can meter as dark as 30%. I use a 40% film to get in the right range. This 35% is only applicable to front sides on vehicles without factory dark tinting and if no other windows are darker than 35%.. eddiesagers and Dano 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just realized that guy you quoted was a spammer. He had a link in the text to his site. I deleted his post, so your reply might look strange.

eddiesagers Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 I just did a minor search on google and found this about the tinting laws of Illinois State. Windshield: Non-reflective tint is allowed on the top 6 inches of the windshield. Front Side windows: Must allow more than 35% of light in. Back Side windows: Must allow more than 35% of light in. Rear Window: Must allow more than 35% of light in. Please keep in mind that it is only for Sedans, if you have SUV then the law is different.
