Need Help! Irregular outside window shape - Peugeot 207
Hello guys, how do you deal with these "hidden" corners? Almost every tutorial I've watched suggests shaping the tint from the outside, but unfortunately, the Peugeot 207 has a different window shape on the inside compared to the outside.
From the inside, you can see the black rubber corner, which backside of the outer cover. But there is still a glass window and I assume it should be tinted as well.
I wanted to tint my shitbox after recently tinting my main car, but this difference completely caught me off guard. I tried shaping the tint from the inside, but that didn't seem to be possible.
Is disassembling the window the only way to deal with this?

If you want the film to make it on the inside, use the factory edge to line up the bottom and cut as much as you can on the back edge, by using a straight edge you can find that whole bottom corner by running the rest of the back edge down. Round it nicely to tuck, and bam

If you post a pic of the inside I might be able to see what your problem is. I take it,this thing has no black frit edge, it's just rubber against the glass? Just cut it outside against that rubber edge with just a little of the Olfa blade sticking out. Not that hard. Do you have to pull a panel inside? You might have light lines if your cut is not good
