Are all the windows glass?

This may sound like a daft question, but I am about to order a window etching kit from
http://www.idlabels.co.uk/acatalog/Car_ ... ching.html and whilst I am pretty sure in my own mind that all of the windows in my Bongo are glass, I wanted to double check.
Maybe the onset of OCD

Thanks - I can't give them a knock as the Bongo's off having some things done to it today. That's why I was double checking. Thanks though - will assume they are (none of them have been bricked up or covered with chipboard!!!!)
I want to get my order in now for the thingy to avoid the postal strike.

Quick question.
Is it possible to use a kit like this if your windows are all tinted?
Does it apply from the outside?

Very good question SK
You'd think that attempting to apply it on the inside could result in an expensive mess if the tint was film applied

As far as I can see from the website, you do do the etching on the outside.
I hadn't thought about the tinted window side of things. I don't know how the tinted windows are made, whether the tint is in the manufacture or whether it's a coating. Mine are tinted - I will have to see if I wreck my windows before you wreck yours

We used a kit like this years ago and it was applied from the outside, but I'm not sure about this one. They have a 'contact us' link so you could ask them by email or phone.
