I have some pretty dark tinted windows in the rear and once again i'm bored with my car's look and am trying to find new ways to change it up. This week, it's windows...go figure.

Anyways, these are 3M tinted by a reputable and quality installer. They look great inside and out. I think they like 10-20% tint? I don't remember exactly, but I paid around $200 for it all.

Anyways, they're up for a straight trade...save you guys money if you're thinking of getting tint. It's only the rear side windows unless you can swap the rear glass easily as well. I'm in Sonora, but go to the bay often and can swap there.

 

why don't you just have the tint taken off buy the people who installed it. they will usually do that if your a customer.

 

You think they will do it for free?

Trying to do this without spending money for one, and also wouldn't mind helping out an iclubber. But if it's free, sweet, i'll do it! haha

 

its super easy to remove the tint.. 30 mins max and all you need is a few razor blades, a heat gun or a really hot day in the sun, and goo gone.

 

make sure to use some lube! (windex works). Just stripped my fronts and if you use fresh razor blades with plenty of windex you will NOT scratch the windows.

PS: car looks sick!

I just did mine friday but i used goo gone instead of Windex since i didn't have any ammonia based cleaning supplies. You just need the razor blades to get it started, i used 4 total 2 to get it started and 2 to scrap off the residue. If you heat up the tint enough it will peel off in one piece or two if you do it right. I only had two small parts, about 2x1/2inch streaks, left over of adhesive and i just used goo gone and a razor blade to get ride of it.

 

I was considering getting tint done soon and this would definitely be the cheaper route. Let me know (PM me) if you don't already have a trade set up.

 

Thanks for all the replies guys. I watched a few vids on tint removal and some make it look easy and others the opposite. The rear will be the most difficult though I think since I have the defroster lines.

If no one wants to trade and save a few bucks on tint, then I will more than likely just remove it. Just throwing it out there since I'm pretty freugal myself these days that maybe someone else can benefit to.

 

yeah winddex helps a lot its the Ammonia in it that's doing the work you can do this trick with the back that helps a lot makes the tent just fall off cut some plastic garbage bags and tape them to the window in a matter that will condensation in spray liberally with windex and then let sit. also helps to be warm so that the evaporation from the Ammonia will do the work it you should notice it bubbling off

swapping windows sounds like a PITA

 

The rear window is indeed a ***** to de-tint with not enough hot days during the winter to do the windex/ammonia bag trick.

All the other windows are 10min from first slice to clean-up.
