What are the window tint laws for Tesla in Texas?

In Texas, front side windows must allow at least 25% of light in (25% VLT). Rear side windows and the back glass can be any darkness. The windshield can have a tinted strip above the AS-1 line. For Tesla's panoramic roof, there is no specific VLT requirement — any shade is legal. Medical exemptions allow darker front windows with a certificate from a licensed physician.

Why This Matters

  • Front side windows: 25% VLT minimum
  • Rear side windows: any VLT (no restriction)
  • Back glass: any VLT (no restriction)
  • Windshield: tint allowed above AS-1 line only
  • Panoramic roof: no VLT restriction
  • Medical exemption: allows darker front windows with physician certificate

"Sleepr removed and replaced the old, peeling tint off my 12 year old car. It's darker, cooler, and perfectly installed. I couldn't be happier. Plus they are friendly and professional to work with!"
