Make sure that the tint shop that you go to does not talk you into using two pieces of film to cover the back window. I know folks who have done it with just one large piece. Looks much cleaner that way.

I had an insert on my 78 and later sold it to a member on the forum. It works good except while driving at night.

I've heard of people using two pieces and placing the cut on one of the rear defogger lines 
. I was asking since there is such a curve in the glass

yes i do have the defroster. I dont have any bubbles around the wires but i do have a couple bubbles in the corner of the glass. This was probably due to the tight area the tint guy had to work in.

The one I had was a brand called Gila. I am not sure how the other brands are.
I know a lot of folks who are happy with it. Just was not my taste.
