    The main reason tinting is illegal in most jurisdictions is simply that it makes it difficult for cops to see what you're doing inside your car.

    Secondary, personal reason: it feels like you’re wearing sunglasses, day and night. Especially for shoulder checking during lane changes.

    Too, if I was shopping used, aftermarket tint would be a deal breaker, maybe just me though.

    yeah I know, Great White North.
