hi thinking about having a decal across my front window screen, but have m.o.t in april, does any one know the rules on passing a m.o.t with a decal on the windows.
thanks

if window wipers touch it it'll fail. but prob depends on the tester and how strict they are. gonna chance mine as its on inside. plus police didn;t take any notice of it when i was pulled over and they were going over car.
i recommend trying to stick it to inside as i noticed when wipers on full in rain and wind the wipers only gotta pull a little on strip and off it comes. i went thro 3 in winter.

is it much harder to fit on the inside?
thanks for the info m8

erm no i found it quite easy. lil bit fiddly but not too hard that its not worth trying. just a case of doing half and putting the other half in sun visor while u do the other half then cut a slot for mirror. then lay rest down. after its on window u can move it around.
but like tinting the rear quaters u get that kinda bubble effect around edge at top. when it dries

i know what u mean about the bubble, i got tints on the 3 bk windows but i decided to peel them bk off again after a few days, couldnt stand the bubble lol.
is there anyway around the bubble for tinting ??

scratch it off so i hear. it doesn;t bother me on the front cos as my strip is black it doesn;t really notice

Easy peasy.
When layering tints on the window, spray a soloution of soapy water onto the glass, place tint on. Correctly position it, then squigee all the water from behind it out. Working from center outwards obviously lol.
