Anyone done this? Is it simply a case of heating them up and peeling them off as any other sticker? If not, can anyone recommend somewhere?

Once uppon a time (long ago) I tinted my MG metro (oy stop snigering in the background) When it came time to sell it, they came back off, if there the self tint type like mine were then they came off quite easily once you start get an end free and use a rather damp cloth, just watch for the heater elements I had to re-paint mine as it pealed some of the metal covering off.

warm soapy water did the trick for me on a Fiat Coupe turbo

I had a go thurs night on the drivers door and it left the adhesive behind, a scraper and some soapy water does it but the thought of doing this on the back window put me off self removal! After i'd done the drivers side the dealer commented that i could leave them on, bugger! Anyway, got Madol off Ocean Park to rip off the passenger one and remove the adhesive, £25, bargain so will get the new car done there as well I think
