quarter windows

[Guest vital]

how do you tint quarter windows that go 2-3" over the plastic on the narrow edge like on some mercedes e class models?

Dunno?

I have seen these and often wondered..

Looks tricky.

cut the rubber

I'm not talking about the straight edge side, I'm talking about the narrow side.. the glass covers the rubber about 2.5 inches and I don't think it's possible to cut that thick rubber w/ an olfa (and I wouldn't wanna do it that way either on a mercedes). I was able to slide the film between the glass and the rubber in today but had no way of squeezing the water out, so I just cut it about 1/8" between glass and the rubber towards the narrow edge. anyone do a lot of mercedes know what I'm talking about?

[tint_detective]

Can you get a modified hard card or a conquerer in there?

[Texastintchick]

No, you have to take the glass out...

TTS has a tip for the Honda Accord. I am not sure on the Mercedes E Class... If it removes the same or not. Nothing, that I can imagine would reach that far

[tintnfool]

You might be able to sneak a Contour card in there to get enough water out.

[Guest vital]

it's too tight in there.. I could get my white half teflon card in there but it will drag the tint out with it when I squeeze out...

some people cut the crescent shaped section at a 45 degree angle so you cant see a light gap when looking from the inside out. Othere just folllow the crescent shape and may have a tiny light gap.

I think I would take the window out if I do another one but charge accordingly.

I go for the crescent shape cut to match the shape of the rubber, ill cut it a bit larger and slice just the edge of the rubber a bit, so can slip a little film under there and there wont be a light gap
