Hey everyone,

I have recently gotten 5% tint all around and I noticed that my EZPass no longer works! (For those in Europe, EZpass is a device that automatically lets you get past tolls without having to roll the window down and pay the collector... it takes it off your credit card)

The only way I can get EZPass to work now is if I either open the sunroof and HOLD the unit out of the open roof or if I roll the window down and hold the unit outside the car while passing the EZPass lane.

I don't know what brand tint I got (Had it done at Carpretty in Philadelphia), but it is very dark (5% all around)... I am sure that is the problem

Has anyone experienced this?
is your tint ceramic or conventional metallic? if ceramic, then it isnt the tint preventing your EZ pass not to work. if it is metallic, chances are...

5%? Isn't that limo tint? That's really dark and probably why. You should go a shade lighter. Afterall, don't you want people to see who is driving that beauty? Especially, the ladies!
