Default Your experience with the tailight tint film?

So I plan on doing my tint over the next week or so after I get the dent fixed that some kid at school punched on my driver side back door (hes paying for it). So along with my windows I was planning on possibly doing my head lights and tail lights. One of the most common ways of doing this from what I've seen is the film that they sell on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=180183225892 - head lights

- tail lights

My question is that, from what I know this a tail light FILM that can be easily put on and removed. Do any of you have these on yours cars and are they reliable? I'm not looking to spend the money on these then have them fall off after a 20 min ride on the highway.

Thanks for the help guys.

Ive had the head lights for about 6 months and they are bad ***, no problems what so ever and the light output is fine pics:

Covering up the reverse lights on the tail lights will make it even harder to see while backing up in the dark - even worse with tinted windows too. If you install them correctly and follow the directions, I doubt they will fall off.

The tint barely does anything, dont worry about light out put, and mine have only come off 1 time, and that was in one of those high pressure automatic car washes that sprayed the **** outof the front end...and i put them right back on and they still work perfectly fine.

Thank you for the responses guys, That was basicly all I was worried about was the car washes because in massachusetts the only way I can clean my car in the winter is the heated pressure washer bays, So Ill just take it easy near the headlights and tail lights I guess haha. Hopefully I'll have them installed over the next 2 weeks.

Tinted tails are retarded and dangerous. I hope the film falls off in 20 seconds and the salt on our roads eats it to death forever!

Europlates are so badass. I wish I could legally put only eruplates on my car.
