don't roll them down. put on your window lock so you don't accidentally do it

lol hehe. Well I fixed the rolling problem. There was the rubber piece folded down so I stuck a pen and took off the door panel to pop it out. And cleaned the film with water. It's on there good after 48 hrs so no probs there. It's mostly working fine now.

Day_tripper I think 35% will look good on silver. I didn't want to go too dark either. If you go really light like 50% I think it's just gonna look like dirty windows.

oh and while I was sticking the pen in there cops came by and asked what's going on? I said I got tint all around they were like oh you're not supposed to do that (in Illinois). Then they see my plate and go oh sorry you're from nevada.
