I used it on mine. looks great!Bought it from elitetint on ebay. I think it was about $17 delivered for front 2 windows only. I didnt have to cut it at all. Its bigger than the windows but the bottom is tuckedin.If you do make a mistake and crease the tint you canjust buy a rollof tint at your autoparts store and trace the the precut one that you bought....
if your **** like me, this could cause problems....chances are you will be using 2 different brands of tint. there could be slight variation in color, especially if one is made using a different process than the other...bad idea if your **** about your truck

I am **** too. Actually Ive seen a few friends whom went to "professional shops" and theirs didnt come out as good as mine! The Dakota fronts are relatevely easy. I wouldnt try something with a curved back window those are a PITA!
Your right if you screwed up and messed up the pre cut one andbought a different roll you probably would have 2 shades of tint. I didnt do this. I just meant a roll of tint is cheap, the toughest part is cutting the template.IF you screwup and are just tracing the template its alot easier, you could always do both over if you wanted it perfect.

thanks for the opinions, since i am not lazy, just don't have the time and i do get pissed off quick if things go the right way , then i will probably have a shop do it.
