Personally I can't wait 3 more years until our CJ (82 model year)is 25
model years old and qualifies for "antique" plates. (No safety
inspection, ergo pitch black windshield tining!)

Re: Window Glare
 
Up here in Canada, the police will nail you cold for windshield tint.

Has nothing to do with a safety inspection, has to do with visibility
and is a 'rules of the road' regulation.

They can even nail you if the front side windows are too dark for them
to see into the vehicle. (unsafe for them, you could be armed or
something)

It varies from province to province. My brother in law had a Volvo with
factory dark tint in the glass that was legal in Ontario at the time.
When he moved to Alberta, the police told him either change all the
windows with new glass or park it.

Re: Window Glare
 
Same here in the south (NH ;-) )

Beside why would anyone want pitch black windshield tinting!
Add some dingle balls across the top of the window while your at it!
Next he'll be chopping it to a low rider with low profile 19" rims!
Sounds like my 16 year old son. (My will leaves my Jeep to my woodsman
brother for fear of what my son may do to it!)

Re: Window Glare
 
LOL!

At least my almost 20 year old son has an appreciation for the off road
capabilities of our two Jeeps.

I had him driving on bush trails on glass ice in the winter when he was
14 and he has been an avid camper, canoe paddler and bush whacker all
his life.

He loves cruising the bush roads with the windshield down, trying to
smack me with branches... LOL!

Man, he still comes on camping/off roading trips with my wife and I! He
brings a buddy or cousin sometimes, but they always have a good time
with us. Even if we do something silly like run out of roads going
north, so canoe the rest of the way up to James Bay. <grin> That was a
'fun' trip, want to do it again, only prepared this time, not spur of
the moment.
