heat with hairdryer and slowly peel, use razor blade, etc. Any remaining glue will come off with some goo-gone.

Are you referring to the front windshield? I believe this is part of the windshield, no?

If it's a film tint, like said above... I used a straight razor and lots of windex for a lubricant on the glass. If you are talking about the stock tint at the top you would need a clear windshield installed.

Ammonia breaks down the glue. Peal it off and then clean with ammonia, or windex(Which is diluted ammonia)
