any suggestions on where I should get this done? I have "legal" tints but want to get them certified as legal ... from what I understand this can only happen at a DMV... if this is the case is one DMV in MD better over another ?

thanks,
The officer should have been able to do the test himself. When shado and I were coming back from Z Nationals last year, we were stopped by an officer (who actually turned around to pull us over....he was traveling the other way on the highway) and he asked to check the tint on the drivers side window. It passed and he let us go on our merry way. I'm surprised MD officers don't carry the tint checker tool, too.

I agree. They should carry the equipment on them to test tint if they're gonna pull you over for it.

We also got out of that ticket by taking our shirts off. I'm not proud, but it worked.

I know right, but it could be worse, budget crunch has cut down on the numbers of state troopers on the road.

As far as I know, Tony's the only man who can go from wearing a t-shirt to a sweater by taking his shirt off...
