That's how my guy did it. I watched him meticulously custom cut the tint for each window. The guy's pretty cool, especially for letting me hang around to help and watch.

Luckily, I was able to take off the panels for the guy because he knew my windows had that window feature when opening and closing doors. Good thing I did, because I found a loose bolt that Nissan never properly placed when they did some work on that door.
