Does anyone know if there is any way i can get my window tint tested as i got pulled yesterday on M25 :nono: :slap: ...Luckily they got another shout :nana2: so they just said get it changed...To which i replied...Certainly officer:rolleyes:

 

Is there any way i can get my tint tested???

Reason being that my front side windows look a lighter tint than the rest so im thinking that i may have tint that still lets 70% of light through so it may not need changing.

 

Other than waitin 2 get pulled again im intreaged to find out.

Ask your nearest VOSA enforcement office if they will check them for you,

usually based at heavy goods vehicle testing stations. As their job is road safety they should be willing to check the tints ( only thing is if the tints are illegal they may take action :( , but this is normally only a case of taking the tints off ).

 

Regards the tints fitted, even although they are lighter than the rears you will probably find them still to be illegal. Most vehicle windows come with a tint already on them usually about 20% but sometimes just about the legal limit, then the sneaky tint firms tell you they are fitting a legal tint ie 30% but this adds to the already tinted window making them illegal.

 

Pity you are so far away, I'd have checked the tints for you!!!
