Before you take it off, check your local statutes for the legal definition of a limousine, in MN it doesn't say anything about special registration, just a "luxury passenger vehicle that carries less than 13 passengers" something like that. Nothing that says my GS isn't a limo and therefore exempt from tint laws. If RI has something similar, it might be worth a shot fighting the ticket before you take it off.

I've done that exact same thing on 2 previous cars and gotten a fix-it ticket both times. I think I'm just gonna do 35% on the GS; little better chance of avoiding the hassle. I found a loophole up here that I can get away with tint on any luxury car but I still don't feel like getting pulled over all the time.

My brother (GSing430) has always had his ride without tint, which sparkles so nice during the day! Also, my friend Samson (StockGS400) has a very clean GS and removed his %5 tint all around (haha) and I would say it looks amazingly better now without the tint. Both of which are slammed and flushed on HRE and Works, including nice body kits. I plan on possibly removing mine.

Does Tint have affect on NAVI reception
I read in the onwers manual that tint will affect the reception of the navigation system, Has anyone had a problem with this ? Any advice on type and percentage of tint to use would be appreciated!
