Okay,

We've all been down this road but I must ask an opinion.

1. Does anyone use hangtags for students and if so have you had many problems, i.e. loss, theft, lack of use or display.

2. We currently went to using window stickers on the outside rear windows of the student cars but have had several issues with permits coming off under very cold conditions. What vendor do you use for permits/stickers and are they good quality and reasonable? We have used Rydin Decal the last few years but this last batch used on the exterior are showing to be not up to expectations.

Thanks for any input.

Is anyone looking at this? How can I get the question out to everyone?

We used to do the hangtag but went to stickers for the very reasons you mentioned. We also get stickers from Ryden Decal however use the type that stick from the inside in the lower corner, right side of the windshield and have not had any complaints of them coming loose.

I'm not sure what decal company we use at Saint Martin's, you would have to ask Howard or Pat, but they seem to work on the outside pretty well.  We do get the occassional decal that comes off or is ripped off, but usually have no problems with the stickers themselves. 

We had to make it mandatory for people to place them on the outside of the window because if you place them on the inside you can run into problems with dark tinted glass. 

If they are in the lower corner of the windshield, tinting isn't an issue since it has to be clear glass, only a top  3 inch band can be tinted on a windshield.
