6 tint tickets WTF??? Did they write you one for each window??? That's nuts...worse than the Chicago cops. The city of Chicago fought the law being changed and even changed the city ordinance so tints were still illegal in the city limits, last I heard they were being sued over it becasue the way the law is written here in IL is that wherever the vehicle is registered their equipment laws become valid. Meaning I live out in the burbs but if I drive into the city with tints the city could still ticket me but the law says that's illegal since where I live and the vehicle resides and is registered the tints are legal, I guess you could call it a grandfather law. A few years ago the city of Chicago was writing no front plate tickets to out of state visitors whose states do not require or even provide front plates
Some cops/ meter maids still dont know the rules here in Chicago and will still go ahead and write your a ticket no matter what.
I contemplated tinting mine to 35% all around but wont have the time to fight them in court even thou I will win.
