well firstly they'll have stock of cars that have em on already but u go to any bmw or merc garage etc and they'll now say u cant order them with front tints. there was an option for tints all round on vectras but we've had letters from vaux saying no longer an option due to changes in law

Here in Brazil the tints canīt let fewer than 75% of light through. But in my GM Corsa I placed in back and side windows 20% and in all front window I put 35% of light through
