:lol6 Oh Lord. Now ya tell me...

Well I didn't take the package tray all the way out. I just jerked on it a couple times with all my measley might ...enough to get my side swiper behind it. Hopefully I didn't pull anything loose. :lol6

Yea I found out the hard way the lady called me the next day because Her keyless entry quit working, If you are looking out the back window it is to the left of the brake light. :lol6

You just plug it back in and all is fine, right? :lol6 I always take those decks all the way out, never had an issue, but it's been a while, can't remember if I unplug anything... :lol6

yea no prob it just plugs back in,the module is about the size of a pack of cigeretts.

I just did one of these yesterday for a poor friend. For the price I was charging him I did it in 2 pieces and I just cut it pretty much exactly to size, put it on the window and slid it down 2 millimeters to cover everything and I didn't see anymore dust then normal in the tint. I also cut the tint around the carpet on the brake light so I didn't have to take the rear deck out.

I didn figure out that if you take two gasket jammers and put one on each corner of the brake lamp and put the tint on the window first with the park that goes down in the light, up on itself. Then one you have the tint under control and the jammers in place you can carfully slide the tint over the brakelight area and with a 6 inch scraper, take the black out and put a pink slammer in the holder and you can press the water out. Let it dry and take the jammers out and Voila! perfect jobe without taking out the rear deck.
