I wood too but our goverment is crazy. They allow only 25% window tinting, and 'mega already have 30% factory tinted windows, so I need an alternative.... I had to remove all tint from Frontera, 'cause police vas taking number plates off from all tinted cars.... Crazy country, crazy laws, crazy people  :D

I like it as its individually made for every car, also having the advantages of being able to remove it when you like..  :)

I really like the look of these they appear very neat & well fitting. I've e-mailed them asking if they do a saloon (sedan) version & will post again when/if they answer  :y

They are very appealing... I like the idea of tints but these may be a better option :-/ :-/

i see they dont do them fot the front windows, best off just tinting the rear windows and leaving the front ones clear glass/standard tint. you can tint any windows after the b pillar and its legal, remember and tell your insurance company though

I don't know for U.K., But here in Serbia it's legal only 25%, regardless of what window it is, front, back... So this would realy help me in hot summer days 8-)

In past couple of days I had some spare time and I tryed to make this shades myself. It cost me about 6 euro's and 5 hours of time. I think that they look good. This is just a trial version but i'm satisfied with the result. http://www.opelclub.rs/forum/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=48555&start=105

I've e-mailed Vanstyle three times now to ask if they do them for saloons & not even had the courtesy of a reply! >:(

If I remember corect, price for estate was about 75 pounds? That is definitly too much, considering you can easaly make it yoursef for 10 times less money...

Um, I got a set of these for SWMBO Zafira. Mainly because you can open the window and the panel stays in place, stops bugs getting in. The quality is very good, they do prevent a lot of heat build up in the cabin but only if used in conjunction with a windscreen reflector and front window temporary screens.
The cost was the same as pre-cut tints, but so much easier.
Last time I did tints was on a pug 206 and I took the windows out and the tailgate off to make it look half decent.

I have an email address that I use to get in touch with them so if you want I can ask them about the sedan for you guys.
