Hammer

Seriously though, hairdryer and a razor blade. Slowly is the key

lol i just saw the guide a couple of hours seems alot of hard labour, so im now opting for the professionals to come along and remove it for 50 quid

There's loads of guides if you type it into google and even on youtube...give it a try yourself first and you could save yourself 50 quid!

those guys want 60 quid to remove front, rear and tail gate tints.
Just a hairdryer? did it come off easily?

I tried to do Ian's V6 ones! Never again!

The tint is easy! The residue is not!

depends how long have you had your tints and also i used a hair dryer and picked a corner and i had taken off the bck window and one of the side windows in 15 minutes, i thought i would be clever to start with and just rip one window tint straight off then it tool 3 hours to scrape it all off. If your planning on trying then i dont mind helping you out, but 60 quid to remove them is still crazy

 

[Italian_Job]

so if you pull it slowly it should leave much residue?? so your heat stripes are in working order ?
dunno why but i was justifying that 60 quid cos i thought it was a real pain.
itd be nice to get some help but i need to buy an hairdryer first

It won't matter mate it'll always leave residue. It's how you remove the residue that's the hard or easy part.

Hairdyer + Time + Electricity = Nearly £60!

True, just thought it might come off easily if heated up sufficiently, that would be a reasonable time-money saving.

no seriously it took 15 minutes to take the side passenger and rear back window off and had left no residue what so ever

haha legend, thanks buddddy. So whats the plan of action? removing yourself or splashing out 60 quid, an be aware that the people who remove the tint will also not garuntee that they wont damage your heat strips on the back window

 

[Italian_Job]

man I want to give it a go, It looks doable.
are your heat stripes ok since you removed the tint?

i havent had a chance to try them out, but when they mist up, you will be the first to hear about it
