I left my truck with my parents while I'm over here in the sandbox and they can't get my truck to pass inspection anywhere because of the smoked out tail lights.

Anyone know of a place in Dallas that would be able to hook me up?

tails I am sure you can find on craigslist. I have a broken pair here, but a claim with UPS is pending on them.

Tint............you = screwed. LOL

I have 8% tint on the front and probably 3% tint on back. And just passed about two months ago. There's a place in my town that doesn't care about tint. Or tail lights. Lol.

Where at? I'll go there in a heartbeat when I get back in May.

I think my truck expired back in October, so I need to go as soon as I get back to Dallas.

Worst comes to worst, I would just buy a crappy pair of stock taillights to throw on to get ur truck inspected and swap them back out after. IDK about the tint though. Good luck!

I think I'll just get some super cheap tail lights and just keep them around for inspection I guess.

Pull the fuse?

Hell, I'll try it! Hahah

I was kidding. I'm sure they will make you put the windows up for inspection, especially if tint is what they are looking for. LOL

I know you were joking, but I'm going to try it.

If Jeeps can get inspected with no doors on it (thus no windows)

Then I can try and play (really) stupid and say my windows don't roll up or that they are all busted out.

Hopefully the inspectors feel lazy that day and will just see it as one less thing they have to check.

It's worth a shot.

Go to garland and bring a $20... find a shaddy looking little shop and be done with it. My bike gets passed every year-ish with about every violation they look for.

I believe in the state of Texas.. it doesn't require you to have side windows. Just front. I could be totally off though.
