I think you may be rite. Never noticed the difference before but tomorrow I will put my glasses on and put the truck in the sun and clean off all the gunk and saran wrap and see. As far as "OOPS", I had some "DISSOLVEIT" which is really impressive as an adhesive remover....it wouldn't even touch thi...

By the way, there's a tag on the front windshield from the tint mfg....
It says:
MSS-63-59
DPS/MHP APPROVED
C.P. FILMS
VLT:+35% VLR:-20%
1-800-LLUMAR-1
I called 'em and they said it would be best if I had it tested on the VLT with the new law....they were sure the VLR was ok .
Thanks, Pete

I removed tint from the door windows today. It was very dificult to get the glue off. Spent about 2 hours working on it. I have the Gila tint off, but can't see any benefit from it. I used it, but the glue stayed on. Nothing I had would soften it for removal except gasoline. Gas got it soft and I co...

Thanks, Walt and everyone.
I bought the truck like this. Tint is fine with me in the summertime, but I could care less in the winter....ha ha.
I'll leave the stuff on the windshield and take the rest off when it gets nice and warm outside....hear it comes off better then.
Thanks

What about the front windshield....I have a nice band at the top of the windshield...it's about 6" down from the top and all the way across it.
Sure does a good job for the eyes when the sun is shining. Think it's ok to leave that tint on??? Guess sides and back have to go for sure!
Thanks

Removal of tint from windows

Hi Guys My 2002 S-10 was bought used...got a really nice tint job on the windows...but it must come off, cuz it's too dark and they don't want to sell me an inspection sticker. Didn't think it was too dark, but they told me if you can't read one's driver Lic. numbers thru the glass, it's too dark......

Thanks guys

Yep, I got the 2.2l and it's an extended cab. I guess the crews don't come with the 2.2 ! Thanks for all the info. The Haynes manual does not show my fuel filter setup. I just got in my Helms manuals and they show it all....but boy, they cost $$$$$$ but they will pay for themselves over time as gene...

They are expensive

The lowest price I could find on a fuel filter for my 2002 2.2 was $35. That is a foreign made one. The American made one was about $45. These things will last to 100G unless something bad goes wrong...and mine is gonna make it too...ha ha. They tell you to bleed the fuel pressure before changing......
