I started to take the panels off but would not recomend it some of the same screws that hold the panels on also hold the window regulaters up (kinda weird0 aleast on the back doors.

Yes that was what we ended up doing if you just take the screws out under the door handle you can pull the panel back enough to get the seals out orngbiggrin.gif

Just wondering how dark we could tint the rears.

A PT Cruiser is an MPV....right???..... I hope it is, cause I've sent some out with the rears way darker than 32%. heh.gif

Bleep beep!

We've done a couple of those. It's another one for the tinters by far. Cake walk. beer.gif

I did the "b*mb drop" on the sides. Came out clean. Seal remover is a must! It's a wagon BTW! Flaugh.gif
Texastintchick
Oh and the backwindow was cake. Trimming the top was a little tricky. Other than that biggthumpup.gif

Exactly.

I tried to just get the seal out, nope. Had to mess with all the bolts and screws. bat.gif

On the back glass I trimmed the sides and bottom as normal , at the top I used a white china marker to mark my cut line . Nice and simple unlike the rest of the car

what three piece the back window your nuts, the whole car is cake no removal of anything or tearing it apart should take you about a hour max
goodtohave
I did one last week...I removed a couple of screws fromt the front doors and then was able to remove the moulding.

I am a former puller now a tucker and I found the car to be a pain in the butt....not the back window it must have been easy I don't even rember doing it smile22.gif but I could not tuck the front doors , but I did tuck the rears.

I guess the next one will be easier, I did a new ford Fusion, that was cake, this one I am undecided.....

So I'm doing one of these cars right now . cake walk .

As far as all the discussion on panels/gaskets and such, remove 1 torx screw and remove the gasket yes its a little tight but saving removing the panel makes you get it out Flaugh.gif . Done.

Schedule one for the 17th along with that bug poking_someone_in_the_eye.gif

I believe the car can be tinted in an hours

I said pull it in, hand cut the windows, 2 minute shrink the back glass, pull seals,clean the windows, stick the film, check for minor imperfections or in your case major, wipe of inside and outside glass,put seals back in, pull the car out, write the invoice and be done in an hour with only no flaws grinning_and_saying_no.gif I'll take that bet Jethro:lol2
