I drive a fishbowl and I don't like it! I pulled the side window tint off this afternoon to get it legitimately inspected tomorrow!

Surprisingly my car passes with flying colors on the plug in test....would fail the visual in a heartbeat.

Really? Couldn't tell, my bad. Figure you were OBDII from the above posts about passing and what not...

OBD-II over here. Again, it passes the plug-in but not a visual. The last guy that did a plug in test on my car fired it up....had an odd look on his face, looked at the scanner....looked odd again and then shrugged his shoulders.

I brought the inspection summary into work and put it on my wall.

This was before I had the collector sticker. I would stand in front of the car, windows and top down so they wouldn't see the tint and wait. This of course was at a private station but the guy just didn't check for the cats.

hey, i met you at the car show last week. next time you have to go through inspection try rolling down your windows and pulling the fuse. my brother's friend did it. they tried to fail him but they couldn't find anything in the book saying the windows have to operate so they couldn't fail him for tints since they couldn't check. they'll probably fight you but it's worth a try.

The driver's side window has to be able to function so that the driver can use hand signals if their indicator lights (brakes and turn signals) aren't working.

So your car is a collectable?

No, the collector's sticker is an upside down triangle. Pretty hard to get these days if you didn't have one before Sept. 1, 2007.

Its not state. Since state facilities have the inpsectors name on the sticker.
