I had the same problem. Take a FRESH razor blade and scrape the front windows and the windshield banner off. Clean the residual tint glue off with an ammonia-based cleaner (Mr. Clean??). For the back window and the 1/4 windows take it to a tint shop and they will have it off in about 30 minutes. the guys I took it to had a steam-powered device which gets the tint off without damaging your matrix or rear defogger. I think I paid them 30$ to do it. Thats the easiest solution IMHO.

BOL

Get some ammonia and a big trash bag...they u mix a little ammonia w/water and spray it on the window then u cut a piece of that trash bag 2 fit the window like a second layer of tint..they u let it sit for a while approx...30min...in the sun..what the bag will do is smother the tint with the ammonia thus making it easier to remove the tint applicable on all windows...mando
