If a customer moves to NC with aftermarket tint, must they comply with NC tint laws during a vehicle inspection?

The correct response is that a customer moving to North Carolina with aftermarket tint must comply with North Carolina tint laws during a vehicle inspection. Each state has its own regulations regarding vehicle modifications, including window tinting, which are designed to ensure safety and visibility standards. North Carolina has established specific limits on how dark window tints can be, as well as which windows can be tinted and to what degree.

When a vehicle is inspected in North Carolina, the inspection must verify compliance with these state-specific tinting laws, regardless of the tint's legality in the previous state. This means that any aftermarket tint that does not meet North Carolina's criteria could lead to the vehicle failing its inspection. Ensuring compliance with local laws is important for maintaining road safety and adhering to state regulations.
