How do those guys tint the back window on these cars? Do they use some kind of special fixture or extension handle to get the tint on back there?

He used some kind of plastic thing that gets back there. He is the best and has done around 15 of my cars over the years since 2005.

I had the same problem, but I ultimately took a razor blade and some goo gone. Leaving the tape pieces would've drove me insane.

I used to have something similar, until the darn connections broke. My was a bit cheaper build quality than that, by the looks of it.

I've got one of those microfiber glass cleaner wand things, but just getting to the backseat area is a PIA as well. You've got to be a nimble contortionist to step in, guide yourself with your hands, all while preventing the shoulder belt from blocking your entrance. Backing your way out of there is even tougher.

It did. Every time I thought about scrunching back there I became more OK with it.

Yep, & I’m as flexible as a valve spring.

First world problems, guys

I don't feel comfortable wriggling into the back seat facing the rear window either, getting out is even worse, but then I think of (no, not England) how the car drives and looks, and the pain subsides

I don't care for getting back there myself. But the car is no new it milks up fast. I left the seat down and now got a free louder exhaust. Maybe i don't need a new exhaust after all.

Hey, that’s my trick!

Seats are usually down around town.

I had my rear seats down this past weekend while grabbing a couple of new garage lights from Menards. There is definitely a difference - I could actually hear the exhaust while cruising!

I recommend that it be a plastic spatula in case it ever breaks through and comes in contact with the glass.
