Was thinking of tinting all my car windows. What’s the lowest legal % you can go to?

Back three windows you can go as dark as you want, can't remember 100% on the fronts, any tint at all can cause grief come NCT time though, I once had a lad try fail me on factory bronze glass on an old jap car.

65% visible light must come through the fronts but the back can be as dark as you want.

Be careful for any factory tint that may already be in the glass on the fronts because this can and does catch people out by being darker than 65% vlt when you add your own tint
