Window Tint
I had mine done when I had the windows out. I just had to be careful when I was putting them back in.
The windows are easy to take out and put back. Worked great for me. |

Window Tint
Window is a non defrost and they said that if it had a defrost then they could tint it np.

defrost vs non
They probably would use the defrost lines to hide the edges of the strips.
Usually on a curved widow you have to cut the film into strips to do it properly but hiding where the strips meet is difficult Many shops prefer the defrost lines as it helps them hide the edges of the strips of film Most of the DIY spray on films are useless and almost impossible to apply evenly.

I have not investigated window tint but my dad has it on his Passat (which obviously has the defroster grid on the rear window). I liked the side windows of his car okay but driving his car at night annoys me.
Headlights in the rearview mirror have an effect similar to a star filter in photography where the light refracts in different directions. It is especially annoying to me on the interstate when I have about a half-dozen or more sets of headlights. Plus, I cannot tell what kind of cars are behind me. If I tint the rear window of next project, it will be a gridless rear window.
