REally?? I try and keep the Window clean and try to clean out the Windows seals.. still it does not work all the time.. So if it is common I take it you have the same problem? So basically live with it?

Really?The scratches in my windows have kept me from getting them done.I just assumed youd be able to see them better with dark tint behind them.

Mine scratches as well. It's a pain in the ass. I got tint done as well, it really doesn't make a difference with or without tint, you can see it equally as well.

Yeah well I am mean if all you guys say you have the same issue I am convinced for sure. I was going to replace the windows and tint.. Then never put them down till summer lol.... (Yeah right). Well thanks all who responded now I dont feel bad.. So I can still get the Windows tinted though right? I belive the only scratching is on the outside so I belive they tint the inside in most cases unless special application right?
Dano~
