I went to Tritek. It’s off 75 and Arapaho. They’re fast. I believe I have Llumar ceramic tint. It’s been 3yrs but it was like $115 for the two windows I believe.

Funny, I just got off the phone with a tint place. We bought a car last year, and it just failed its first inspection because the window tint is too dark
 Have any of you dealt with this kind of crap before? We bought it used (it's a 2019). Maybe it came from a state where the laws are different. Nevertheless, when we called the dealership, the salesman told us that they wouldn't have sold us a car that wouldn't pass inspection. I'm waiting for the service manager to call me back. I think they should take care of it for us. It wouldn't break the bank if we had to correct it on our dime, but it would still suck

When I was a VA state inspector only the state police carried the meters to check. Maybe the inspections stations here are required to test? Or just that station? |

If the vehicle is registered in a county that doesn't require emissions they don't have to do it but Collin county is definitely one that does ETA https://www.dps.texas.gov/section/vehicle-inspection/faq/vehicle-emissions-testing-exemptions |

Edit: guess I was wrong. Tint is on the list of items to be inspected. https://www.dps.texas.gov/rsd/vi/inspection/inspectioncriteria.aspx |

They did my last 4 cars, and my truck window has been busted out and replaced/tinted like 6 or 7 tines in the last 5 years. Great work |
