He also mentioned maximas as a problem rear window. I have about 3-4 bubbles on the defroster lines. I tried smoothing them out from day 3 to day 6 after the install..but they won't go away..
I had rear tint on two different 2GS applied by the same installer and haven't had no problems. Look for another tint shop.

It can be removed with out messing up the defroster. The previous owner of my GS had a bad tint job and started to turn purple so I just removed it with a heat gun, or a good tint shop can remove it. I have used my tint shop for years on many vehicles and no bubbles!
