My friend got done for having his too dark on the front, apparently it's like 5-10% that's allowed through. Rear don't matter though, I want mine done, the rears, I don't want the fronts done as there's no point.

To be honest the police prefer no tints at all on the front windows.

think the front windows have to transmit 90% but rear windows and rear windscreen you can go all out on.. pricey and not worth it though
