Default Window tint question?

How do the installers handle the side windows indexing when they are installing the tint? And after the install while the tint is drying out.


Thanks for any advice.

They manually triggered the switch so they would stay up while installing. After he installed the tint he used a heat gun to dry the bottom before releasing the switch. He has done this on all four of my Vettes and I have never had an issue.
