    Got pulled over last night, ended up with three tickets, anyway I got most of the tint off the side windows, but I have a strip left on the side of each window and cant get it off because something is blocking me from rolling the window down to peel them, any suggestions?

    Fabric steamer is a way cleaner way to get if off. Way less mess to clean up afterwards
