Reply to comment by Aggravating_Foot_528 in I don’t know if this was asked a lot but it’s hard to get a clear answer since there’s so much gray area… can I, and if so, how dark may my window tint be on a sedan? My apologies if this is a repeating question, I look forward to y’all’s expertise! by FreeGreenCards_

I wasn’t sure if they do make them like that from the factory, I just heard it somewhere and wasn’t sure if it’s true

NY and CA have the same window tint law as PA. My guess is that most of not all states have the same law. Auto companies are not gonna make different windows for different states. Seems like the law for most or all states is 70 percent so if a state allows darker tint then that can be added on later by the owner.

Here's the list. https://www.tinting-laws.com/

I'm sure manufacturers just pick the most restrictive laws (looks like PA, NY, CA and other states) and make all windows like that else would need 51 different window packages at the factory and then they couldn't move supply around from state to state, and then people couldn't register their car in different states without replacing the windows.

Ah that makes sense, thank you for the link. It really would be difficult for them to make different kinds of tint with all different laws
