u cannot do it in 1 peice as the window bens 2 ways, which then makes the tint crease or lift, the only way is strips and that what a profesonial would do, but getting the lines straight is a **** too lol
just take the rear winda out its easy then u havnt gotta try and do it at a funny angle
tried it that way twice and failed
