marisa, if you have to go back, ask them to put a black vinyl strip up there, most places do it anyway, but it'll help.

Turned out like crap, you can see the lines where the strips meet, but they wanted a lot of money to have it done and just wasn't worth it.

Im not sure what ls1 means about the vinyl strips if thats what you are asking. I did the sides fine on mine anybody can do the sides, its the back that takes skill. Really all you need is a small squeegee, a credit card and baby shampoo so you can slide it around before it sticks..

I know there's no way I'd be able to do it myself lol. And I meant would it be possible to get a tiny vinyl strip for the circles down the sides of the back window? lol
