Default How to remove window tint yourself?

I've decided to remove my window tint, I won't go into details why because its irrelevant. So how can I get this tint off myself?

google has your answer you are looking for... tint removal isn't specific for a certain car manufacture.

Heat it and take a razor blade and soapy water. Get it started with a razor blade and spray and pull and slide the razor. Depending on how long it's been on the harder it is to get off. Not too bad

If its factory tint than it will be quite easy to remove. I live in texas and didnt need to heat up my window at all since it was already hot as hell.lol Just took a razor blade to start it and did the rest with my hands. Had minimal residue left on the window. Took about 5 minutes per window.
