Window tinting removal
i removed all of mine when i bought my hatch. all old, and purple.
i used a razorblade in a scraper, and a spray bottle with rubbing alcohol to remove the residual adhesive. its a pain in the ***, but can be done. oh also, if you can let it sit in the sun or remove it somewhat warm, its a lot easier. goodluck!

Just don't use the razor blade on your back window.
Scrape a piece up, then spray it down with simple green, wait.. and start to pull.
It's easy to do, just time consuming.
Good luck with it, if you need any more help, IM me and I'll be glad to help you.

The easiest way I've found on front/passenger windows is to roll the window down a bit and slide a blade into the tint along the top edge near the corner. Once you get that peeled out, begin to peel the tint back, and roll the window up as necessary. There will probably be adhesive left over, so spray the window down with ammonia (we use stuff called "Ammonia T-Stripper"). Give the ammonia about 15 seconds to do its work and use a razor blade or superfine #00 steel wool to remove the adhesive.
For the rear glass, peel away a small corner (be careful of the defroster wires) and gently but steadily continue until the tint is out. Spray down the window with ammonia and use the superfine steel wool to get the adhesive off. If you don't have steel wool, i would try to just get the adhesive real saturated with ammonia until it gets soft and runny and use a cloth to wipe it away.
This works for me at work and I've never scratched glass or ruined rear defroster wiring. Just make sure not to use regular *** steel wool.
