Check out the HTA (http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/sta...es_90h08_e.htm), I think the law for most lights is they have to be visible from 150 meters or something, and I believe there's some kind of law about not tinting your front lights (62.7), doesn't say about the rears though

I'm sure any tinting of any light is technically illegal. Whether a cop will pull you over is another matter.

Attachment that affects lamps prohibited

(7) No person shall drive upon a highway a motor vehicle if either or both of the lamps that are required on the front of the vehicle by subsections (1), (2) and (3),

(a) are coated or covered with a coloured material; or

(b) have been modified by the attachment to the lamps or the motor vehicle of any device that reduces the effective area of the lenses or the intensity of the beam of the lamps. 2002, c. 18, Sched. P, s. 19 (1).
