Just take your time and use LOTS of soapy water and do yourself a favor and get a REAL window tinting squeegee...Tj

I'll put it like this, I bought the ebay tint kit. after about an hour, paying $180.00 to have the windows tinted seemed like a good deal. if you can do it go for it, personally I can't.

this is probably a more tedious job. the way i did it. was i bought pre cut full blown pitch black tint. went to walmart and bought the 20 dollar tint applying kit. took my windows out. and layed them flat. lots of soapy water. and slow install . it came out good. but though may way may not be necessary . it worked out good and has held for a good 2 years.
