Got a 99 pontiac bonneville to tint tomorrow and need to know how to remove the rear deck? Also can the door gaskets be removed?
tintman237
Yep the gaskets come out, the rear deck you need to pull the rear seat, and the "C" pillar plastics, a coupla clips and out she comes beer.gif

hmmmmmmm.gif I think they come out just like anyother GM vehicle, if I remember correctly just pull the top back (B pillar) side of the panel back slightly stick a bone (popsicle stick) up in and push up on the gasket and pull er out

Kokomo Tint and Dent
a few times when i would shrink the back glass, where it flares out at the bottom, i would wet the glass, hold the rough cut tint way up on the bottom corner and heat the outside of the tint as i layed it down on the glass. After that some of the tint would flare up but if you leave 3/4 of an inch or so extra you can cut off the flared up tint. Its wierd how it works but it does. Aftter that there is minimal shrinking to do on the top.

I don't shrink the bottom at all on this model, but you need someone heating on the outside as you are pushing out the bottom cause it take awhile before it wants to stick. Anyone done the rollups on these that has vent visors tantrum.gif Now that's a pita Flaugh.gif






For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
