### 1. Paint Protection Film (PPF) – Your S-Class's Invisible Armour

### 2. Legal Sun Protection – For Indian S-Class Owners
**⚠️ Important Legal Note for Indian S-Class Owners:**
According to the Supreme Court's 2012 ruling and the Central Motor Vehicles Rules 2020, sun control films are **legal in India** if they comply with Visible Light Transmission (VLT) requirements .

|----------------|------------------------|
| Front Windscreen | ≥ 70% |
