Good luck with the install. I really do not recommend anyone doing this because if you mess up a piece of film (which is very easy to do) then you are out that money... plus you have to get a replacement. Just be patient, take your time and dont over work the film.
Thanks Thom, I know you don't recommend the DIY route but I have a ton of patience and me getting to a local shop is almost impossible with my work schedule. The nearest shop is about 30 minutes away, called them twice and left messages and they never got back to me so that said enough to me to look elsewhere and just decide to do it myself understanding the risk for a DIY'er
