We've just brought a Fiesta Courier van with the side windows for SWMBO to take the mutt out in and I've got to limo black the rear windows and side windows. As I used to fit tints in a former life I'll do them with the class in place. Just don't for get the 70% rule for the front windows ;) :y

The annoying thing about that particular rule is that after you take the tint off, you can then put on sunglasses that are 5 times as dark and there's no special rule for that!  Ill thought out I'm afraid as with many of the recent tranche of regulations.

Dunno what these are about, but I folled a BMW the other day and it looked impresive.  No idea at all about the product or cost but maybe worth looking into. :y
