Take it some where else. Are you saying they let the film go over and past the dot matrix? If so they are retarded...

No that would never last, the only reason tint goes on the outside of the window is to size it and heat form. However did they go over the dot matrix? I have mine going over it but its like 2 dot width all the way around so its not that bad. You really can't do too much else with it. If you could show a picture that would be great.

Okay well def put up the pics when you can. Take an inside close shot and an outside close shot. A lot of place uses adhesive of some sort to help the tint stick. s197's are known in the tint industry as being a biiatch for having dot matrix and that retarded part at the top of the back window where film doesnt stick too.
