Sounds like you got done just the same as me - however you got off pretty light! I had a prohibition order put on my car ordering it off the road until the tints were removed, then it had to be reinspected by vosa before they would lift the prohibition and let me drive it again!

They said if i was caught driving it it would be towed away straight away
