Peeling Window Tint Question

I purchased my 2003 TT from a FL owner and it came with a medium gray tint on the side and back windows. I noticed that the tint is starting to peel off on the back window along the top edge. Is there any easy way to get it stick back on? Thanks, appreciate your thoughts.

Better off taking it to a tint shop to see if they can readhere it. If it has been exposed for an extended period with dust / debris on the adhesive side, it will not be able to adhere.

If nothing else...you might just change out all the tint for something you might like better....usually the back and side windows only comes to around $150.. If it's peeling, I would question the quality and competence of the installer because there is an art to it.

Thanks, yeah I suspected that, but the tint around the side windows looks fine. Probably look to replace the back window tint at some point after DE season.
