Hey anyone have privacy glass in the back who lives in MA, CT, NY, RI etc. I'm trying to get my jeep inspected and the mechanic told me my glass wasn't factory so id fail, but it came like that from the actual jeep dealership. Anyone have any advice?

Inspections suck.
If it is actually factory tinted, bring your Window Sticker, it should say it.
Or, time to find another mechanic, I always bring it to the same guy who "takes care of me."

I'm pretty sure all of the KK's came with dark glass on the back windows. It's the front ones that they want to see through, that's why they don't match. I wouldn't worry about it, get it inspected or call the agency that is in charge of the inspections. They'll be able to tell you if that mechanic was correct or not. I'm thinking not.

Base models with no options did not come with any window tint
