I wouldn't recommend it. The type of tint you buy at Pep Boys or Autozone is really ****ty and often discolored. Not to mention they start peeling and bubbling rather quickly. I live in DFW area of Texas and the tint-killing heat and humid is ungodly around here h: It sounds like a nice project, but bear in mind you have to prep the glass, precisely trim the tint to fit in the window (including having a little bit below the door sill), soak the window in whatever that liquid is that they use to bond tint to glass (is that just soap and water?), then line the tint up perfectly.

Hell, for a hundred dollars and rather someone who knows what they're doing do it. Plus they'll usually give you a good warranty if it's legal, 35% tint
