Default Removing window tint

This is my project for the weekend. I know how to do it (razor blades for the side windows with a little warm water and Palmolive and steam or ammonia for the rear glass), but I was looking for anyone out there with actual hands-on experience who could let me know if there is anything I should watch out for or any tricks that might make the job easier. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Cool

Pretty cool link Sharp! Be careful you don't damage the rear window defroster (some rear windows double as the antenna as well).
