Message	I bought a precut kit for my new tahoe and did it myself. All you need is a heat gun, a squeege and some water/with a few drops of liquid soap. My kit was $48 shipped it just takes some time and patience to get all the bubles out. My kit is not 3M but at $48 dollars if it only lasts a year I could put a new one on every year for 12 years and not pay what you were qouted.
