Default Question about Tinting the back window of an Accord

OK, here goes......I have tinted the side windows of my 1992
Accord....when I got to the back window, I cut out the piece to fit and
then came the time to adhere the tint....sheeze...what a
mess....bubbles and overlap in the curved area of window and it looked
so terrible that I took it off.

Can someone here explain a way to tint the back window of an
Accord.....without the bubbles and overlap?

Thanks!!!!

Also, I have a comment. I had installed a car alarm on my car about 2
years ago. Amazingly, 7 months after I got the alarm, my car was
stolen!!! I got it back 3 months later. Well, the thing constantly
went off and I would run outside see what was going on. I was in a
"parinoid state". As you can imagine, I was tired of constantly
running outside to turn it off. So, I took the ignition wire from the
engine compartment and spliced an On/Off troggle switch into the
circuit. Then, I placed the troggle switch in an area above the Hood
Latch, but tucked under the dashboard. It is completely undetectable
because it is "camoflauged" near other wires. So now, I have
disconnected my alarm and use the troggle switch. All I need to do is
turn it off when I get out of the car and Wala.....no power to the
ignition!!!! Now lets see those thieves try to steal my little Honda
again!!!

practice, practice, practice. ive never attempted tint on car windows.
$99 got all 4 plus the hatch window tinted for me. money well spent

put mirror tint on all the east facing windows of my condo, and it makes
a BIG difference.
