Stick your finger nail behind it to get it lifted off and then pull. Tint comes off fairly easy.

3800camaro is correct if its tint from autozone, name brand tint like llumar and suntek will be stuck on hard. Best thing to do is to wrap it all in tin foil and heat it up in the sun or use a heat gun. Then use windex or any other amonia based product to scrape off with a razor blade.

Take a steam cleaner and put it against the window. Thats how I got mine off. It worked very well.

The glue that is used will be disolved using amonia or an amonia based cleaner. If the Windex with amonia didnt work try using straight amonia (with good ventilation of course) and spray it on and let it soak and then use a razor. It may take a few to get it to release. After that use a new razor and more of the amonia spray to get the rest of the glue off. This part is not fun and takes patience and time.

When I removed tint film from a previous Camaro, I peeled it right off in strips with no residue left behind. It was in the heat of the summer though, so if you're trying to do it outside in a cold climate, have fun with it.

Why did you want to remove it anyways?
