The simple answer that any tinted lights that didn't roll off the assembly line that way are illegal. Period.

If care is taken to make sure enough light gets through to retain the proper visibility, you can usually get away with it, but even that's not a guarantee you won't get pinched for it eventually. It all depends on the cop that sees you.

I smoked my tails and have gotten pulled over once, followed many times, and haven't had any cop say anything bad about em.
Hell, I've had a cop say he likes my tail lights and asked me how I did them.

^ thats what im thinkin most of the cops around here would do. i dont think the rears matter just as long as you can see the brakes turn signals and reverse lights. im pretty sure the headlights are the only ones that are illegal
