That actually looks awesome. Makes me want to experiment with my new clear windows collecting dust.

All i did was wait to have them off for a few days and took my time and used a lot of solution before using a squeegee to slowly work it all out.

Nice thing is regardless of scratches or imperfections the film adheres to the inside surface so it comes out just fine

Thank you I will probably try the self tint first since if I can figure it out it would be worth saving the money and if I fail then I'll move on to buying them individually or hoping mopar comes out with some soon! Thanks for the input!

Definitely, if you have any questions shoot me a pm. I learned more with every window i did. The rear came out the best and it was the last one of the three.

thanks for the pics!! those look great and was exactly what i was looking for

so you put the tint on the inside of the windows (sorry if it's a dumb question i've never done tinting - heck never even had tinted windows in any car before). the outsides of my windows are really scratched so i was hoping this would kind of cover it up a little?

Like i said, i used A LOT of solution and that made all the difference. It doesn't necessarily hide any scratches or imperfections but they don't interfere with the films ability to adhere correctly. Definitely worth it till i can get a trek top in a couple years.
