Alex, For Europe, you need to check the Automotive EMC Directive 95/54/EC. It provides the EMC approval regime for motor vehicles of 4 wheels or more and all equipment (including aftermarket equipment) intended to be fitted in the vehicle.

These would use the power from the batteries possibly from the cigarette lighter holder (12Volts). I have obviously had to design in additional filter circuitry to account for this type of DC Supply source. My question is, will there be additional EMC and Safety requirements in Europe or North America (other than those already approved for use in commercial areas) for vehicle/mobile use? Already Approved to: EMC: EN55022 Class B, *EN55024, EN6100-3-2, EN61000-3-3, FCC Part 15, ICES-003 Safety: EN60950 (also UL/CSA) *The only additional test I can think of is for the EN55024 to include the DC Power Port tests (excluded before due to the terminal being supplied from an AC/DC power source). As usual I look forward to your invaluable replies.
