tint it yourself, cheaper, and its easy, just practice put the tint on the outside of the car first. spray the outside of the window first (water and lil bit of soap. no amonia type soap). lay tint on outside of window (get the outside of thewindow yet? good, ill stop saying it now). squeege (sp?) from the center out as much as you can. you WILL have bubbles, squeege them into as few big lines as you can. then get a hair dryer, and heat them up till they lose their straightness (not hot air at all, lowest setting)outside edges of lines will sink in slightly, stop at this point. squeege the sinking lines into smaller ones, until gone. repeat for all lines (note: will leave a kinda different color, dontworry, will go away. just dont burn the shit). smooth the interior thing, so it looks like youd leave it on the outside of the window. now, spray it donw again, and CAREFULLY peel it off. peel off clear film to expose stickyness, spray agian, and spray inside of window. put tint in place. squeege from center out, as before. there should beno need to heat any part of it now. if there is, do it, but you really shouldnt have to if you did it perfect before. DONT CLOSE THE HATCH UNTILL ITS DRY!!! cantstress that enough. you must spray the shit outta thewindow, so it leaks down into the hatch when open. if you close it, water will run under the tint, and fuck it up. try to let it sit in the sun for a while. the first few days it should look like there is water behind it, dont worry, it goes away. if any bubbles pop up later, spray down that section, and squeege it out. remember, windows need to be wet!!! makes it easier and you have more time to work with. get a good quality tint (3m is the best in my opinion. there are others, but i cant think of them now). try to get a wide enough roll to cover the rear in one peice so you have no seams. good luck (you wont need it, its easy)
