Factory Rear Window Tint    (Score: 1, Normal) 07-06-2012 22:32

Anyone know what the tint level is. I got hassled by a cop tonight that insisted the tint wasn't factory. RI allows 70% only if the Vehicle is a car and unlimited if SUV. The registration doesn't seem to say car or suv.

I did some looking around, and it looks as though you're not the only one having window tint problems. Take a look at this discussion:

Something was mentioned about contacting Honda for the exact specifications and then fighting it in court :P

Get from dealership in WRITING that current tint (and percentage) is factory's. If you get a ticket, sue police and Honda...
Why should you be harassed for BACK window tint???? In CAD they care for front and side windows even though I see cars with totally non transparent ALL windows; caps are just lazy pigs NOT doing their job properly and payed big bucks for it...

That's odd. My father is a retired policeman and I don't recall him getting paid "big bucks" when I was growing up. He was also a volunteer fireman, which by the very nature of the word volunteer, means he earned nothing at all from risking his life. In fact, one of my proudest memories is when I fought a fire side by side with him.

So, you are incorrect in your rather tiring dumb ass commentary that you provide here. Using generalizations is an immediate red flag that someone lacks education, so you might be well served in spending less time here and brush up on some of that.

Good for you. Probably if houses would be built properly and not from cardboard on this island we would not need so many firefighters.
I am sick of news whenever single cop 'dies on duty' and they make a show of his/her burial. All traffic has to stop while thousands instead of doing their job waste MY money matching around playing some kind of music.
Are cops above everybody??? They steal, cheat, abuse law every day, get fat driving cars all the time, you cannot see them of foot patrol EVER.
You do not like my comments? Do not read them; go fight some fires...

You can't possibly be this ignorant and self-absorbed.

The invention of the Internet must have been very exciting for you, because there is no way in hell you'd have made it this far actually acting like this in person.
