PreCut Tint Question

Last night I took delivery on my brand new 04 Silverado 4x4 Crew cab! My question is if anyone has ever used precut window tint which is custom cut for your vehicle? I want to tint the two front windows as the back are already tinted from the factory. I've tinted in the past, but cutting was always my worst enemy. Any experience/advice? Thanks

Also does anyone know of anyone that would have precut tint for the back window of a 72???

I cant help you with the precut question but i ran into something strange last week when i had my glass out of the truck trying to find someone to tint it. I went to three places and all of them told me that they would not tint the glass out of the truck. I thought that this would be easier but no one would do it. Would anyone know the reason for this? I dont know if this info will help you but i assume there is probably a reason for it and it might help you determine if you will be able to find precut tint.

I have been happy with it in the past. There are several sellers on ebay who sell precut custom tint cheap. Look here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

Because of the possibility of cutting the tint when installing.The tint takes a while before it is realy stuck to the window.
