He said he could do the lights, just didn't recomend it. I go at 1pm i'll call the dealer in the morning and get his info.
You need to take it back. If the kit is already lifting you are going to have major problems with it down the road. I have been installing film for years and having film lift is a sign of a bad install. Once dirt gets under the film it will be ruined. Take it back now and demand that it be replaced and that he should heat seal the edges with a heat gun next time.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

Do you recommend the "do it yourself"er heat seal the edges? Why is it necessary if you get a good adhesion?

Thanks....

Good input on this thread. I think you're giving everyone quality information. I assume you're a dealer?
I'm a large Clearshield dealer in my part of the world and technical trainer for Bekaert Canada.
