California Laws and Tint Percentages Fresno, CA

Picture
California is a unique state where a set of central laws work with different local jurisdictions to create different laws about tint percentage information. These rules typically apply to cars, but they can include all passenger vehicles.
 
You’ll typically can fewer tint darkness restrictions in the southern part of the state, while visibility needs are often necessary up north while traveling through the mountains.
 
It is up to each driver to ensure they’re complying with the local guidelines for where they drive. Having something legal in Fresno won’t give you a free ride if you’re in violation somewhere else in California.
 
What Are the State’s Laws About Window Tint Information? 
When you want to upgrade your vehicle with window films or tints, here are the rules that currently apply.

  • The windshield must not have any reflective tint on the first four inches.
  • Front side windows can have up to 70% tint darkness when the measurement is taken with factory tinting.
  • An aftermarket film must allow more than 88% of the available light when it’s the only product on the vehicle.
  • The back and rear windows can use any tint darkness, although the most popular choices range from VLT 5 to VLT 70.
 
California doesn’t allow for extra reflection with installed window tints and films. The guideline is that it cannot be any more than what standard glass creates.
 
Medical exemptions are permitted with the appropriate paperwork.
