The window tint took about 1-1/2 hours. Aside from standard install, it required several iterations of trimming once applied. Rear windows are tedious, but probably the most important window for a reg cab.[IMG][/IMG]

What about leaks around the slider? Mine has a small gap on each side between the slider glass and the rest of the window glass.

They say if you use that stuff to use a tube and a half, didnt know that till after the fact so i found that Butyl tape and it fixed it right up. Car wash and 3 heavy heavy rain tested approved!
Hi there, What size butyl tape did you use? I see a lot of people saying 1/4 in. but there are several different sizes on amazon.

Thanks for your time

The official TSB says to only use 8mm (5/16) foam core butyl tape. It specifically says not to use the solid butyl most people use. The official part number for the foam core butyl is E69Z19562A
