    Hello, in my country, a new law will appear in 2015 and we must remove the front tint on driver and passenger windows. So I would like to know if anyone has some good techniques to use to remove them... Like hair dryer? Goo gone?
    I'm just completely disappointed to remove them because they protect a lot from the sun and the look was also perfect... Fucking laws sometimes

    start at one corner and get a razor blade and start scraping. Get some glass cleaner to remove any leftover adhesive. Easy job

    That sucks, man. I hate driving while the sun is baking my left arm. Removing window films is easy. Use a cheap steamer on it and pell it off starting on top of the corner. Once the film is off, run the dsteamer over whatever adhesive is left on the window and wipe it off. No chemecal is needed. I removed the window films from a friend's 4-door camry back in October and it only took me about 1.5 hrs to get everything off. No sticky adhesive residue !
