Eirinn bought me a nice big jet pilot sticker for the front screen of the baja and although it restricts the top of the screen i can still see where i need to. as long as im not trying to spot aircraft.

is it actually legal to have a whacking great big sticker on your front screen?

its about 45cms by 12cms

has anyone else got a big sticker on the front and can post a pic for me.

Cheers
Nick

fill me in on this, but what exactly is jetpilot and why do so many ppl have these huge jetpilot stickers on their cars?
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

its not like i put a huge "Trust" or "HKS" sticker on my windscreen when i dont have trust of hks products on my car i dont really think its that ricerish. yes its a brand they make clothing primarily motox stuff. its white writing with blue outline and a chick in a bikini liying down over the letters. i dont beleive it covers the swept area of the wipers but i was thinking yesterday that it might obscure traffic lights when im stopped at intersections ill have to do a mock up.

Mmmm should know this! From what i can remember it's between 10-15% of the total depth of the glass. On a Beetle with the screen so small i think it will be a no go to be honest.
Thats why you dont see many beetles with toptint ( banded ) screens. The band would be tiny and not worth having. Thats why i didnt have one.

p.s this does not apply to super bugs 1303 etc. That sceen is alot bigger , curved and are available with a decent toptint screen.

Cheers dan😉

Go the jetpilot stickers.
I have already got myself one to put on the manx's window ready for when it is replaced (cracked).
Jetpilot is a brand of clothing marketed at the motor bike riders and water skiers (wakeboarders) .
They make an awsome product and sweet stickers.

good work.
Mine is just a plain old JETPILOT sticker.
It still takes up a bit of the window but it doesn't really matter because i can't see that section of window with the roll cage anyways.
good to see you put it on. Ya MRS has good taste in products.

Looks
not bad,
not bad at all 🙂 and compared to the ricers and their coverings, I doubt the cops would worry you about it. (never know, but I doubt it)

I would think only a nasty cop who hates Beetles might fine You & tell You to take it off....

It used to be illegal to have P & L plates in the rear window & windscreen but I see them all the time and You can buy plates with holes in them that You can see thru...

I heard on the Radio a few nights ago about 70 New road rules for NSW just released...

"having a Jet Pilot sticker on front windscreen of VW Baja" might be one of these new rules....🙂🙂
