TEXT:

I have a product I would like to market at the consumer level. My product is reflective decals that would be placed on vehicles. I would like to know of any regulatory considerations before beginning to market the product.

To give you a better understanding about my product here is the basic idea. One decal will be placed on the back side of the rear view mirror and the other will be placed on the rear bumper. Sizes are approximately 2 x 8 inches for the front and 3 x 7 inches for the rear sign. Words and a symbol will only be reflective.

My concern is I do not want to market any product that would be either illegal or create a driving hazard. I have spoken with an accredited product testing company and they did not know what specification or if any apply to reflective decals. I would appreciate you providing me with any requirements so I can ensure my product will be both legal and safe for consumer use.

Since I have not started marketing yet please keep the information in this letter confidential. Thank you for your help in this matter.
