With your hands and a razor blade?

don't use a razorblade on the back where the defrost strips are...u will kill them

i heard the best way to remove is to use ammonia...and the key is to soak the area...using maybe a garbage bag or something to cover it so it doesnt evaporate quickly...should peel off if soaked

also big help is doing it in direct sunlight

youll just melt the tint to the window.. the correct way to do it is with a steamer but they are home ways too windex eats up tint so you can spray it on in hot weather of heat it up after the windex then scrape right off. do not scrape the rear window

Some wigger tried tinting the front windows on my GTI before I bought it and did a horrible job. Razor blade did the trick.
