Rules like these protect safety and visibility. They are easy to follow when you choose your shade with them in mind.
Side and rear glass
The glass and film together must let through a minimum percentage of visible light, commonly cited as 35 percent in Tennessee.
The windshield
Tint belongs above the line marked on the glass. A clear film that does not change the look is a different matter.
Reflective film
Mirror-like finishes are limited.
Medical needs
Exemptions can exist. Ask your doctor and check with the state. We always confirm the current rules when you book.
