    Thinking of sneaking my car in tomorrow morning and getting her done...hmmm

    Safest bet is 35% or lighter, but I've gotten away with 20% for 7 years.

          I went to Audio Heaven in Richmond Hill but I heard from other forums Thornhill Tinting is good as well.

            Well I'm probably going to get it done monday - cost is about $245 with tax - going to get 22% - it's the one shade darker then legal - is this a good price?

              So anything less than 25% is technically illegal I presume?

                  THE LIMIT

                  Hey, my neighbours are both OPP officers, so i asked them. to answer your question, 20% is the legal limit, which is to say 20% light through. you can likely get away with 20 without a problem, but it should be noted that as with most things, it is up to the officers discretion that pulls you over, so he could in theory give you a ticket for sumthing as high as 30%

                    That's retarded ... although I presume if he pulls me over in a suit and tie listening to classical music on the radio he'd probably back off lol...


                    Thanks for the info - much appreciated!

                      I beleive that 20% in the back and 35% for the front windows is the limit.

                      I have 15 or 20% all around... u can easily get away with 20%, is when you start going under 15% that you have to be concerned.

                      If you want it dark, i'd say go 15% in the back and 20% in the front.

                      Im not sure it $245 is a good price, but it sounds alittle high.
                      I only paid $150, but i do know the owner, so i guess that helped.

                      good luck!!
