Tell him to check out the ewfa. They are trying to get 35% as a European standard all round.

I would really love that, Devil. From what I understand, you can't put anything on the fronts in Europe, right? 35% would be awesome! My wife is from Norway, and we may eventually move there. With 35% on the fronts I may be able to tint there. :rollin

I have a friend there in Spain who heads up the Bekaert operation for that country.

Let me know if you need a contact for him? Might give you a job hey?

Front sides are not allowed anywhere in Europe. In some countries they obey the law more than in others. If there will be a unified European law in the future right now it looks like it will allow nothing in the front and anything behind the b-post unless the glass industrie wants the 70% Vlt for front sides lowered. However, 35% in the front will never be allowed.

Oh, almost forgot Spain. If the film that your customer has is homologated in Spain as well, and only then, the Spanish Distributor for that type of film can help by supplying your customer with the according spanish papers. Without those papers you definitely won't get the car registered in Spain. I suggest you ask your film supplier for help.
