PA-need inspection: illegal tint HELP
I recently moved from Maryland to PA and this damn state wants you to inspect your car every year. My father does Maryland inspections so tint was not a problem.
Anyone know where I can get a PA state inspection without taking off my tint. I live in Shrewsbury/York area. Inspection on both my vehicles are due by friday.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Any corner gas station that has an inspection license can perform the inspection. Look for the green PA shaped sign cleverly labeled "PA State Inspection" or something close.
I don't think tint is on the list of things to check. They will look at the exhaust and flag a catless system.

There is a 70% limit on all windows for passenger cars in PA.
PA vehicle tint laws: http://www.dot10.state.pa.us/pdotfor...ets/fs-sun.pdf
Form to petition PA for an exemption for your tint: http://www.dot10.state.pa.us/pdotfor...rms/mv-402.pdf

I called two places and asked if tint was something they "inspected". They said they would not pass a vehicle if they suspected illegal tint. The second place stated that i should go to police station and they test my tint. Like anyone would do that. lol.
Yeah i'm going to drive around tomorrow and ask a few places if they will pass me.
Thanks for the help guys.
