    Bump. Got the same Question. I have a 2002 Tacoma xtracab. The front doors definitely has a tint that is removeable. But the rear and back windows, i can’t seem to find an edge to get it started. Are the windows just purposely darker?

    If you have the mirror rear glass you will have to swap for clear glass to got rid of the mirror look.

    Adding tint to the inside of them makes the mirroring effect more intense
