Mirrored window film

Postby fastmower » Sat Jan 27, 2007 3:38 pm

Can anyone put me onto a supplier of mirrored window film in green? I'm after something that looks like the coloured lenses in sunglasses. I've found some mirrored film that fades from a colour to smoke - but I just want plain green all over.

Oh - and it's not for the door windows or the screen - I read they'd made most of that illegal now :roll:

Cheers,

Andy

You have to have at least 80% light through the front windows, B pillar forward only a small top tinted windscreen is allowed, and if you have an accident your insurance can use tinted windows as another reason not to pay out !

if your found driving a commercial vehicle with tinted windows on the front of any kind and you are found at fault the cops will add the driving a un-safe vehicle card on you aswell and chances are vosa will be called in and the van checked top to bottom seen it to many times when we attend accidents were a van is involved :!:
