I have taken the film off the drivers door window as it was peeling off but the passengers door window doesn't seem to be peeling so it's harder to get off.

try a hair dryer to warm up the glue on the tint like you do to remove stickersI have taken the film off the drivers door window as it was peeling off but the passengers door window doesn't seem to be peeling so it's harder to get off.

When I removed mine, I took the windows out and used a wallpaper steamer. By warming it as you pulled it took a matter of minutes to strip each window

Yep, heat it up. If it's baked on then a stanley knife blade is good!

paint stripper? just a thought.
make sure plenty of people confirm that before you try it!

DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT. Tint is just sticky back vinyl. Use a hair dryer, heat gun....whatever. If it's still stuck (baked on) use a stanley blade!paint stripper? just a thought.

i never said it was a good idea!
just a suggestion if some was being stubborn. use a solvent to melt it off.
