Removing window tint anyone?...

Just bought a car and the window tint is horrible, it's all kinds of bubbled up and the worst of it is over the top of the rear defroster -can't scrape it with out taking out the defroster lines. Any ideas?

as far as the rear defroster, take our time, maybe try a heat gun. But just in case, go to a junkyard and see how much it would cost for a rear window.

Too much work for me! Gave in and took it to a pro $40.00 for just the rear or $80.00 for the whole car. Going ffor the whole she-bang!

I wouldn't think twice about paying someone else 80 bucks to remove nasty tint. I have done a car myself, and wouldn't wish it on anyone.
