So I have my first Jetta tonight a 2005 model, and I did some reading of 2006-2007's and just want to make sure I am doing things the easiest way since a the custy will be here watching... For the fronts, I know the gasket is pretty tight, so I am going to remove the torx and pop back the top of the panel and pull the gaskets out. On the rears, I should just pull the entire panel? I know some guys mentioned to do this on newer models just curious what others do on an 05. Any tips of brake light removal? I think this one may have it in the top of the BG.

I get ever thing but the last four inches top and bottom. I use and have used gila for the Past 23 years and this is the only one icant seem to get. The car is mine so its always in my faces lol so I want to get it down and be done with it. Does the gila not shrink enough or is it something I dont know bout or doing wrong? Any help will be a great thanks.

Hi all, I need to take the front door panels off on a vw transporter t5 van any ideas please ? Ive heard that the clips break is this true ? Thanks

I'm currently in the middle of tinting a vw T5 Transporter 09 plate and found that in all 4 corners of the rear window I'm getting bubbles on the heat strip. This wouldn't be a problem if there was only one or two bubbles but there is about five or six. I've tryed letting it dry for a day and then pushing them out but that didn't work,also tryed putting some heat on and pushing them out that way but there is just to many. Really need some guidance as only got a bit of hair left to pull out!

Found out something from the shop foreman today. When retracting the convertible top on the new Eos, be careful not to stop mid opening, or even worse, open halfway, and then try to close. This can overheat and burn out the motors for some reason. Just thought I would put this out there for others to watch out for. I just tint the back window with top up, then retract roof fully, trick the doors and go to town.

How do you guys heat form the VW bug rear window? I’m doing a demo with one next week at SEMA and the guy that has been doing it does it in 3 minutes. I have got it down but it takes me like 20 minutes. I even recorded the video on You Tube of him doing it. I think he told me he formed it wet. I’m getting ready to try it wet soooooo ……… film at 11! Thanks, any suggestions will be tried in the name of speed!! Stan
