There is no tint film on the back windows, it is tinted glass, in other words, there is no way to remove it, the glass is made that way...although any good tint shop can match the windows all around to give it an even look...

enough said.

Although you do need to at least add clear tint to the rears (if you don't want them any darker than factory). The film will control some heat, UV, etc etc etc - and if you check out www.Overboost.com's site, you'll see why tint is important in a wreck. Their xB is totaled - driver door glass still broke but it didn't spray the driver with millions of shards of glass. All the back-side windows are completely blown out, good thing no one was sitting there or they would've looked like fresh ground beef from the flying glass.

Picture's worth a thousand words.
