Ive never heard of pre cut tint but i knew a guy who bought the tint from pepboys and did it him self, and it looked horabal. its almost worth going to a tint shop. around me its like $25 a window.

pre-cut tint on ebay. it's supposed to be quality film. i'd still go have it professionally done. i can get both front windows and a strip across atop of the windshield for $85.

There is nothing wrong with pre-cut tint. It is going to come down to your tinting abilities. I would read some how to's. Buy a tint kit from wal-mart, and have a heat gun, a really good hair dryer could work. Clean the windows really good. Again read some How To's! Patience Patience Patience. There is a reason those guys make good money.

Tinting your windows is very simple. The secret is to use soapy water and cut 2, or 3 times.
My 98 came with factory tint, so all I had to do was the drivers and passengers front side windows.

My rear windows came with factory. But im going to go have it redone. All windows besides front and back will be 5%. Total cost= Just driving over there and letting him have the jeep to do it.

You can look up local laws online as far as % you can go. For trucks, as long as you have both side-views.. you can go as dark as you want on all rear windows, front I believe for any vehicle is 35%. It is just a matter of not getting caught otherwise. For those of you who have darker than spec up front, when you see the pigs just roll down your windows.
