"Someday" I need to replace my windshield due to a crack and delam. I can't justify getting the reproduction ZR-1 windshield, so I plan on getting a standard C4 windshield.
I noticed this line on VetteMed's ad _Windshield has clear tint "AirBlue" to help with heat rejection like stock windshield_ I'd be interested in getting some tint for the windshield. Andrew, do you have more info on this? Anyone else have this or something similar? TIA, Gary |

FWIW & I don't really know:
Is it legal to tint your windshield? I know front and side window tints are now OK here in wonderful Calif. , but I thought not the windshield. On the other hand, just like exhaust/ headers/etc., BFD. ![]() |

The manufacturer is Llumar, any authorized dealer tint shop should be capable of a correct installation. Very unlikely to be detected by police as it's very light in color.

tf, I agree that tinting the windshield is potentially a problem with the "tint police," but I just want a slight tint which hopefully isn't that noticable |

If the tint were between the two pieces of glass, this would be perfect. I know here in virginia, the inspectors are quite happy to use their razor blades getting your old stickers off; which would destroy the tint....

that and window tint on the front windshield is illegal. The always try to not pass me until I tell them it is from the factory that way.
