Whether you’re looking to keep the sun out or just add a sleeker look to your ride, window tinting in Michigan is a solid option for distinguishing your car from others and adding value. Tinting also adds privacy, which can be invaluable in cities and areas where you want to keep others’ eyes from peering into your car.
But there are many options when it comes to having your windows tinted, and it’s important to understand what goes into window tinting and any laws surrounding it. Here are three tips to keep in mind when exploring your window tinting options.
Tip #1: Make sure your tint aligns with the law
When you’re considering having your windows tinted, you may want a type of tint that’s quite dark. In Michigan, any darkness is OK on the back side and rear windows. However, there are limitations that apply to windshields and front side windows.
The Michigan Window Tinting Law of the year 2000 states that windshields’ tints are limited to non-reflective tints on the top 4” of the glass, and front side windows’ darkest tint portion is limited to 4” from the top of the window. For the back side and rear windows, however, any darkness can be used. Make sure that your windowing tinting specialist adheres to these specifications. Otherwise, you could receive fines. All Simbol Auto Glass experts are familiar with this law, and ensure all window tinting jobs meet these standards.
Tip #2: Ask yourself what you want out of your window tinting
Because there are different offerings available and reasons for having your windows tinted, ask yourself what you’re looking to get out of your tint job. Are you trying to keep wandering eyes from seeing what’s inside your car? Maybe go with a darker tint. Are you concerned about the sun’s UV rays piercing your glass and creating an uncomfortable environment in your car and potentially damaging your interior over time? Ask your auto glass specialist about which type of tint is right for you and your needs.
Tip #3: Leave it to the professionals
