Suggest you save your money. When it gets scratched, it looks terrible and will cost you an arm and a leg to remove and re-do. Go with good quality film, made by 3M or similar and they are great. Do not have ready pics of my van right now, but can send them later. looks great. I have 3M Film all around.

Quiet easy to diy, I did some from a bus in the bath! Rough cut the film to size, wash window thoroughly in the bath. Separate film from the backing ( may need extra hands ) with the glass wet, place the film onto it, move till in right position. then use a wash blade to remove bubbles, keep the water running over the film and keep squeegying with the wash blade. When satisfied with smoothness, leave to dry off ( shower cubical is handy! ) When dry run a sharp blade around the glass at the same angle as the bevelled edge. Make sure the glass is completly dry before trying to get the rubbers on. I have found that KY is best as it's not petrol based so does not attack the rubbers or the film. A generous squirt round and the rubbers go on a treat, and when you re fit them to the bus. Have fun.
I was washing the car, when it fell off!!!!!!
