take a trash bag, cut it open and tape it to the window (securely) leaving the top open. pour/spray some ammonia in it (or cleanser with ammonia) and let it sit outside in the sun for a little bit. the ammonia should break down the glue and it'll come off in sheets.

exactly, I'd also turn on the heater

hopefully the tint isn't too bad or you'll end up scraping it off

I had to do the same took time but it came out good

get a pack of razor blades and a shop vac

unplug your thermal rear window thing as when you scrape the tint off you will ruin it

hopefully you were careful with the rear defroster traces. scraping at it WILL kill them. post pix of before and after

all im using is a razor blade and windex. scrap off the tint with the razor blade then take the windex spray the window and scrap it again with the blade to get the glue off. then just clean it and it should look great.
