    It doesn't matter what us viewers think of the window tint, at the end of the day the DVSA have said to not have them so that's it - no window tints. It's not worth having a mark on your operator's license and also, as a You Tube Trucker you need to be crystal clean because you are a lot more visible.

    Can’t wait to see the new trailer behind your lorry, and when the interim is done, it will be the icing on the cake. Bad luck on getting stopped by dvsa, but at least now it happened you can relax a bit, when seeing them about. I didn’t think they would fine anything mechanically wrong, as it looked after by ace mechanic Shaun. Yes it does look strange without windows tints, but for now I would just get Dan to get all that glue off and leave them clear, but I’m surprised they didn’t say anything about the blue beacons.

    But you can have your windows tinted with special tint
    That gives that same look but let's enough light through as long as it let's 70% light through your ok
    Its the same with windscreen tint & headlight tint too

    I am amazed you had the tints on in the first place, especially given you knew it was likely to a problem, "You were expecting a fine", your words, why risk it?

    Over here in the states, it is quite common for regulatory agencies watch popular RUclips channels to see if they are violating any law or regulations. I am always mindful of what I include in my videos.

    Don’t put the dark tint back in but Chameleon tint is legal.. little blue shimmer to it could look cool.

    Can't you putt some tints on that are less dark, like legal darkness? Or is that useless? And if so, why not blue tint?

    Sad that you had to remove the tints tbf they looked well tbf..
    Funny thing is when I worked in the Netherlands we where allowed anything on the trucks including tints and the Dutch vosa didn’t mind and where not too arsed about loud exhausts either and you could have as many lights on the vehicle as you liked which again was never a problem..
    Says a lot about the country we live in when I’ve worked not only in the Netherlands but also in Switzerland and around Europe and they have a different approach to vehicle standards..
    Odd thing I did notice was that tints only became illegal around the time the mobile phone laws whwre put into place because before then it wasn’t an issue but now they don’t want you avoiding detection for not wearing a seatbelt or being on the phone and with tints it was difficult to see what you where doing especially when they where parked at the side of the road whereas now they will allow rear tints just so you feel like you have a small win but not allow them in the front windows..
    I remember when custom cars where a thing in the 80’s and most of those had limo black windows and we never had any issues but now it seems to suddenly be a road safety issue I just can’t think why it would go from not being a problem to being a road safety issue in a couple of decades🤔
    Best part about driving for the Dutch was that uk vosa hated us because they cant issue an s strike on an operators licence they have no control over and it annoyed them quite badly coz them vosa boys love to be in control of everything..

    I kinda liked it more with the tint, but as you said, atleast everyone can see the new interior. 😃
    How is it in GB? In some countries you can have your windows tinted legaly and nobody can say anything. 🤔

    No more window tints unless you do it to the set legal restrictions. I wonder what this means for Hellen's Volvo build.

    I'll be honest, The Truck looks so much Better with the Tint Installed. It's a shame they made you pull them off. It's crazy to me how Regulated the trucking industry is over there in the UK. Maybe try to find some Reflective Tint that's mirror like but will still let it the proper amount of light through the window, but would also give you Privacy from the outside looking in.

    Get the removable tints, you can get them off and put them on when you want
