    I ended up finding a local shop that does it for $120 so I’m gonna just have them do it. I had him do a F150 12 years ago so I’m just gonna bite the bullet and have it done professionally.

    I have done it myself a couple of times. The main issue when I did it was film quality. Back then only professional installers could buy the good film. If you do it yourself use a razor blade to scrape the window first and then as others said clean well. We have enough installers around here so not worth DIY.

    That’s what the installer talked to me about. The quality of film he uses versus the crap you can buy on eBay.
