if you look closely at your window in one of the sides a bout 4inches down there should be a little AS1_ written on it, that is how low you can put a windshield banner, anything below is concidered illegal

In Florida they are trying to pass a law that doesn't allow any stickers on any of your windows! That really sucks!

But of course, I can put whatever the hell I want on my windshield, because I have a doctors prescription. I talked to my doc because I was tired of getting pulled over for having my side windows tinted too dark.

Why would you provide a company free advertisement?

You can have it further than the marking, it has to be transparent though. Some cops will let it fly, while others won't.

If its not illegal it should be.. just because its so homosexual... but i guess if they allow same sex marriages they have to allow windsheild decals as well..

6 inches or less is technically legal... but any form of banner on the front is illegal...

Spoon is a company that manufactures products.

JCWhitney is a Ricer-Walmart.

That's the difference.

i dont see a difference, either way, your not getting paid to put their sticker on which is some type of promotion for that perticular company nor do you have direct contact with any one representing that company. Either way, its your car, do what you want with it. If he wants to put the sticker on, go ahead, just keep it above the AS1 thing

Is this for the front or rear windshield? And is the law the same for both, since my front glass has no markings on it?

Do whatever you want .It is your car , and yes in most states it is illegal. I would try to come up with something better than JCW for a windshield sticker though maybe a company that makes parts or whatever wheels you'r running something that has to do with that . Instead of a company or shop that you go to.
