Arrie - That is a sport. 2010 E350 sport without lighting package.

Ouch the halogens!

however, it is definitely well lighted in your neck of the woods.

Just a small piece of advice..Last fall I was following my buddy home on I 95 from Newport. He was in a driving a heavily tinted '08 3 Series Hardtop convert. and I was in my '07 650 Softtop convert. A Statie pulled right up behind me in 2 seconds flat. I had 28% tint. Barely legal in Mass. After less than 1 mile he cut around me, pulled in between me and my friend and pulled him over. His tint was far darker than mine. The Statie pulled out a light meter and wrote him a ticket on the spot. Unfortunately, it was a legitimate reason to be pulled over. He had to have the tint removed before his court appearance or he would have paid hefty fine. So, long story short, dont give the police a reason to pull you over.

How do you figure 28% is barely largely when mass is 35%? I'm also trying to decide how dark I want to go. I usually like low 20% and have had on other cars in MA without problems (assuming you know someone to give you a sticker). But I'm at the point now where I don't want to deal with the BS anymore. You have any pics of the 28%?

If hid retrofit is expensive, try just swapping bulbs with philips diamond vision for low beams and led bulbs for the parking lights. Total cost about 60 bucks. Google for pics, these bulbs look awesome.

Hi Greg, I wish I had decent pics but I di have 2 which may or may not be helpful to you. The rear was 20%. PM me your email and I will send the 2 pics.

I find it a PITA to upload pics on this site. Tried 3x and either they are too large or an "invalid file". Looks like this is the only one that will load and its pretty much NVA. I did send Greg pics of my E550 and i think it gave him a benchmark. I can send you pics of my 550 legal tint in a PM or I guess I could download something to decrease the pixel size?? Any suggestions would be helpful?

If you have MS Office , you can use it for that purpose or even Paint should do the work for you
