The Kit I had ordered is arrived next Friday
This weekend I have done the job (only for the rear glass in a first step). 
I have a complete Kit with the front glass too.
I don't know if I will put the film on the front glass.

Hi Recar,
same for me! I need to apply it, if u give detail i will try to find it in Italy or if not possible next time I will go to france (maybe in few week  ).
One additional question: what about scratch problem? is will happen, is possible to remove and substitute it?
Thanks!
Paolo
P.S.: Oh, I forget it for a moment: in Italy is not possible to put the "dark" on the front lateral glass... so your picture is perfect for my needs!

Yes it is a do it yourself Kit
In the Kit you have :
The film for all the windows or rear windows only
The films are pre-cut at each window size
You can choice the "thermoformage" option (the films are formed to the windows curve)
And a kit of tools to do the job
There is an explanation how to do the job (in French  ), and a video on the site.
Here is the site URL :
http://www.variance-auto.com/index.php?#configurateur
Perhaps it will be better to confirm, they can send it in England?
Then you just have to do the job "Lady": Discovery 3 HSE Seven TDV6 Tonga Green.

It's harder than it looks to do a really good job . . .. No bubbles, no creases and no dust / dirt. "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

Yes but it'll be a good French lesson for me !
Thinking about it, you're right 90BHP, It'll be a nightmare of a job. Worth a try though ???? Mrs Jones ? We've come for your Liver

Fully agree the 90BHP remark
It’s not so easy
- You have to be check very carefully that you glass are perfectly clean
- You must do the job in a clean environment (drain the floor of your garage to prevent dust to go on the film)
- If your are not a “manual†(I’m not sure it’s the right word?), and very patient do not do it yourself! "Lady": Discovery 3 HSE Seven TDV6 Tonga Green.

Hi all,
seems good as final aspect: but I'm a little concerned for the scratch and the aging (I saw a lot of plastic film full of crack after some years for aging and sun effect).
Does anybody know if the situation is improved the last years due new material?
Thanks
Paolo

Had all my windows done by a pro in Germany and he did a great job. There is no cure against scratching apart from being careful, the ageing is not a problem, in fact the guy I use (he did the wife’s car too) gives a 5-year guarantee. Stadt Panzer Power

not a site sponsor but I have to recommend the guys at http://www.midlandtinting.com/ Ben has done loads of D3's for the local Land Rover dealerships and has the contract with 3M for their products. Subaru use him for all the RB import Impreza's "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

I can recomend you "solarcheck"....they also work for LR distributors and others.
I wouldn't be able to install this kind of film by myself.
They fix it for you.... Finish product is perfect.
I have chosen an intermediate "tint" that is perfect for the kids and acceptable for privacy.
it allows a 18% pasage of light and prevents warming (reflects about 43% solar radiation)
great product.
