NathR32 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 That looks so much better than before Has anyone had troubles with the authorities with 15% tint on their windows. I wanna get mine done in 15% but don't wanna get done for it and have to pull it all back off. Might give Greg a ring and organise to get mine done.

kursed Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 so what is the legal limit of % you can get for the windows in NSW? I can't decide between the 15 or 30, is there a middle ground thats darker than 30% but still legal? cheers ps booked in for next week Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95122-sydney-window-tinting-group-buy-from-only-150-per-car/page/5/#findComment-2448073 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 Kursed, Greg should be able to advise on the legal limits, I think you can do a 20 or 25% but i may be wrong.

Edge Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 (edited) As far as i know 35% light throughput is legal for your front windscreen darker is ok for rear windows. reflective vs non reflective which is better?

MANWHORE Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 In that case, you'd be wrong if you're in NSW where this group buy is located. look at the legislation.

shir33 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 (edited) i take it that since it is the 30th this great offer is over? also would seeing how alot of you got the illegal 15% tint would that void insurance?

aquariuz6 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hey btw when you get a chance to get pinkslips done, Do they check the percentage of the tint? to see if its legal or not? Because I dont have tint at the moment... but I recently got pinkslip done for rego, even though I didnt pass because of tyres, i saw the guy with some gadget thing and it had tint on the side of it. Wonder what was that? Maybe that was just for something else. I plan to get mine done next month before summer hits Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95122-sydney-window-tinting-group-buy-from-only-150-per-car/page/5/#findComment-2550925 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endorean Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 For those that Are interested here is a section from the RTA about window tinting. I have attached the full Vehicle Standards Information as well. Authorised Examiners at Authorised Inspection Stations (AIS, 'pink slip' stations) are required to check window tinting as part of the annual safety check inspection.Tinted film that is damaged, bubbled, discoloured or that has deteriorated in any way that adversely affects the drivers view must be removed. Film residue (ie. left-over film adhesive etc.) must also be removed. Rear vision mirrors must be fitted to both sides of a motor vehicle if the VLT of any side or rear window is less than 70% Since 1 August 1994, NSW law has required that newly tinted side and rear windows maintain a VLT of at least 35%. When replacing window tinting which provides less than 35% VLT (ie. tint applied prior to 1 August 1994), the new window tinting must provide at least 35%VLT. vsi03_rev3.pdf Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/95122-sydney-window-tinting-group-buy-from-only-150-per-car/page/5/#findComment-2557340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
