I have searched and searched - haven't been able to get one for years. Try your local window tint guy and maybe use two or three strips (layers) of dark tint. Possibly they may have some strips that are off-cuts off a job and it may be cost effective for you. Good luck.

Tags will have no problem with the new non-metallic tint material.
