BTW I payed 100 for all 5 windows tinted with lifetime warranty! : )

Looks like they missed the reading yesterday; HB 3325 is back on the senate schedule for today for its third reading. According to the live video stream they're still working their way through Senate bill second readings right now, but they seem to be ripping through them pretty quickly.

i got the tint done in merrilville, IN. I didn't just go for tints, haha I have family near by. Its like 45 mins away from downtown chicago, roughly 40-55 miles away. IMO still worth it, chicago sells for above 250 for 5 windows. It was a special promotion but I believe they still have it goin on.

Yep, and it didn't make it onto the schedule today either.

Ah well, it'll most likely come up tomorrow.

And...nothing today either. Too much time spent debating whether or not accused (not convicted) felons should be required to supply a DNA sample for a state database.

It has to be either tomorrow or Friday, or they'll miss the third reading deadline.

They skipped it during this morning's reading, since apparently the Senate sponsor (Sen. Murphy) wasn't present. They're still working through the list, but I suspect they won't get to it again before they wrap up for the day (they're arguing quite a bit over HB436 right now, a loan program for ex-offenders trying to start a business).

If they can't get to it soonish (and I'm actually not sure on procedure; once skipped, they may not be able to revisit it the same day), it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

I was wrong; third reading is happening right now.

Edit: interesting, the rationale for the wording of the current version seems to be that the Chicago PD was concerned about the cost of the tint meters, and the percentages specified appear to allow for "tint cards" to be used to perform the test rather than having to plunk down for a meter.

Are there any other links from government sites that show the bill as passed. I'd feel a little more comfortable having something written from this great state to show the cop(in the unfortunate event of a confrontation).

So wait does this mean it's officially legal to have tints on the front windows.. If so what's legal.. I saw 35% but what does that mean.. anything above 35% or anything below 35% is legal. And to be noobish.. is the higher the percentage darker or the lower the percentage darker.. Thanks in advance to whom answers this question.
