You took the whole back window out to tint?

My tint installer didn't even take any of the windows out, and he did a pretty damn good job, the line is cut off very close to the edges, can't even tell. I don't think you need to go through all that hassle.

WOW LOL...

You are removing the entire rear glass just to tint it? Did you also remove your side windows out of the door to tint them?

All that is done with the glass still In the car. No reason to remove the glass ad make it harder on yourself.

u dont need to remove any glass to tint it, im not sure what you are trying to do but if you dont no how i suggest leaving it to the pros, call a local tint shop and let them do your back window. Most windshields and rear windshields are glued in with a special glue and u have to remove the seal around it so i dont suggest doing all that for a simple tint job
