NTEA Director of Technical Services

Our customers want us to add truck bodies and various equipment, after which they ask us to certify the vehicle and place a final-stage certification label on the truck. We are unsure what to do because we thought glider kits were used vehicles and, therefore, did not need a certification label. Are we correct?
