Tail light tint

In the state of georgia it requires that your lights must be visible from a distance greater than 300ft... Now I have been pulled over by the cops and mine are BLACKED the F OUT!!! I seriosly doubt there is a darker tint on the forums... The key with law enforcement is to know the law for your state as well as to make sure that the REFLECTOR portion of the light is still visible (i.e. the lower reflector strip). Police will check that first to determine if they are legal. Each time I was pulled they took out their flash light and hit the tails to see if the reflector was visible through the tint. Mine is barely visible... Now if they give you a hard time about it make sure you know the distances required by your state by heart. I have also used the excuse of "these are my show lights and my street lights are on back order..." I usually get a warning but I only use that if I feel the cop is going to try to give me a ticket anyway.
