I'll charge all you guys $100/ per jeep for all the windows, polarized industrial grade window tint, BUT you have to come down to Puerto Rico lol, maybe next time lol
Anyway from what I've read here those prices are ridiculously high, still if you want professional results window tint IMO isn't a do it yourself kinda of thing. Patience is the key. Always check states laws before installation. Here's mine with 35% windshield, 20% front doors, 5% rear doors and all back windows.

I used a steamer-soap and water-alcohol and ammonia mixed with water(all equal amounts) today to take my window tint off--getting the tint off was the easy part-the glue was much harder to get off- I used ajax to get it off-it works good..I worked really hard but it was worth it and its all off except for the 2 windows in the hatchback,they can wait for now-got rained out!!Now I need to get me some tint!!
