Thanks.

PS: I searched this forum, but didn't find any info, which means it was probably right in front of my face in BOLD letters...
Either hair dryer or wait for a hot day. Depending on how long the tint has been on there its pretty easy to remove. Just use a razor blade to remove the extra clue here an there, but not on the back window. I don't recall if the defogger is in the glass or not. If it is, then use the blade, if not then don't. Start with one corner and slowly peal away.
