Default front window tint...removable?

Did the ES 350 ever come with factory tint onthe front drivers and passengers window? Bringing a car up to Canada with front windows tinted and I am assuming if it was after market it should be easy to remove the tint....correct?
fingers crossed.

It is after market but not so easy to remove. Go to an auto parts store and ask for Tint remover. You will get a bottle of liquid remover and a razor blade. It is a PITA to remove and will take a few hours to do it. The other option is take it to a place where they install tints and have them remove it. It will cost maybe $50 to get it done. Good luck.

Yes, removing window tint is a real pain and requires a lot of patience, but like most things it can be done. I hate window tint and have removed it a few times - sometimes easier than others, probably depending upon how good the install was done.

Good luck.
