Texas has different regulations for the front and rear windows of vehicles. The front windshield must allow at least 25% of visible light transmission (VLT) through it. This means that the windshield cannot be tinted more than 25%. There is no VLT limit on the back windshield or rear side windows.

First, individuals must obtain a medical certificate signed by a licensed physician. This certificate should outline the medical necessity for increased window tinting. Once the certificate is secured, applicants can submit it, along with the required forms, to the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS).

If you want the best protection against the Texas heat, consider the non-metallized or Ceramic series automotive window film. These films will not interfere with your vehicle's built-in antennas or sensitive on-board electronics. You can choose from various tints from 5% to 70%.
