New Ontario vehicle inspection regulations state that cars manufactured after January 1st, 2017 may not have any aftermarket window tint applied to the windshield. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) or factory-made cars can have 70% VLT (30% opacity/light block), and tinting may not extend more than 75mm from top of windshield.
