They look great with the yellow, i'd remove the fronts though. Depending how dark they are depends on how you get dealt with, from a telling off to going to court for dangerous driving due to the condition of the car. I was also told by our Road Safety officers who deal with tints alot that 6 points for a 'dangerous' offence such as tints or carrying too many people is all it takes to lose your licence.

It shouldn't be the worry of being caught that makes you want to remove them. Think why the law is there, so you can have a clear view of the road. would you tint your windscreen to that level? What would happen if you don't spot a child on a push bike with no lights one night and pull out on them? I have been to a nasty accident with a motorcycle and a mini with illegally tinted front windows.

I hope this doesn't come across as me moaning or lecturing you as that is not my intention, i'm just telling you about my experiences/thoughts so feel free to ignore them!

You may fall in to the 'words of advice' level and not even get a ticket but I personally wouldn't risk any illegal tint on my windows just in case!
