Can I tint my front windows?

I've had operations for malignant facial skin cancer and my face is now very sensitive and vulnerable. Need to protect it against hot sun in Torquay. Is there a legal way to tint the driver's window, if so, how do I proceed ? Honda couldn't tell me.

No. In Europe it and the front side windows have to allow a certain amount of light through by law.

Neatly styled. Increased room and better performance than original Jazz. better to drive. Very versatile. CVT-7 returned in February 2011 replacing i-SHIFT. More reliable than first generation Jazz.
