    If you mean for tinted windows, this is not necessary. I tinted my own and had no trouble applying the tint to the little triangular windows. There is a black frame around the glass about 3/8 inch from the edge that gives you some play room for the tint.

    Agree, trim removal not necessary to tint.

    there's a screw under the door handle cover (under the level, pop out the cover) and under the pad in the grip you use to close the door.

    Remove those 2 screws and pull out from the bottom of the panel to pop out the clips. Easy.

    Removing this makes it easier to add the tint to the bottom of the glass.

    oops sorry, I guess I misunderstood the question. Still, I had no trouble installing with just the plastic squeegee. I did clean the door panel surfaces near the windows and the window rubber also.

    I tried mine, did a terrible job, and took it off. I didn't use a heart gun to shape them, so I got wrinkles.
