Default Tinting Rear Window?? What Did You Guys Have Them Do With

the 3rd brake light area? Did you have them just cut around that big plastic piece infront of the light? Or is there a way take that that so they will be able to get all the window done? Can you post some pics and details on what you have and how they did it?

It is not hard all they have to do is remove the brake light cover, the light itself doesn't get in the way.

Brake light covered without having to remove the plastic. I watched them do it and it looked pretty simple. Doors on the other hand were a byotch!!!

dont see how they could push it down right without removing it. but its snaps off it seemed. mayba screw or 2.

they should also remove door panels, which is like 4 screws then it pops off.

The plastic round the brake light looked pretty flimsy and they just used a big squeegy (square piece of plastic) to push it down. No removal of anything on the doors. Other luxury cars have this window roll down thing so it's nothing new. They just have to do some extra things to make sure that the bottom stays down. Like hitting it with a heat gun.
