Yes it is illegal to have your front sides done. I removed all my tints about 6 months ago, but now I'm thinking about getting it done again. Insurance company said no to any type of tint so might look to change to another company that is a bit more lenient and just not do the fronts.

My uncle is the tinter for Scotglass in Oldmeldrum, did my old Astra to a high standard and will be doing my new car aswell.

Give them a phone, they will be very competitive, ask to speak to a Jimmy Thomson for all the gen.

Looking good, I phoned Scott and I'm getting my tints put back on.

Where abouts are you, I'm in BOD.

Rory the problem is that the windows already have a tint on them which is about 27%, so any form of tint unless it is clear will push it over he limit
