Unless he has a specific need for a full mesh (and yes, I know that goes
against normal practice), I would recommend to not complicate things until
his internal network is done.
If it is necessary to complicate things, then it would probably be easier
to setup GRE tunnels between the sites and run IBGP inside them.
