Is the use of non-approved adhesive films or tinted windows allowed in a passenger car?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is No, it is prohibited. According to the General Vehicle Regulations, any modification or installation of adhesive films on vehicle glass must be approved (homologated). This is essential to ensure that the driver has clear vision (without distortion) and that, in the event of an accident, the glass does not shatter into dangerous sharp fragments. Driving with non-approved tinted windows results in a fine and a failed vehicle inspection (ITV). Also, remember that even if approved, they can never be installed on the front side windows (the driver's 180º field of vision), except in exceptional cases (official vehicles or drivers with specific medical conditions like lupus).
