And this only works on the rear window, I think the other windows must be different.

This is true from what I have learned so far ^&*ing with this whole mess. Rear hatch class with defroster lines; Eagle One Chrome Cleaner takes the tint right off...almost easier than getting dog snot off. With the glass in the truck it would be messy, you should do a good job masking and protecting. (I had mine out to replace the rubber so did the removal on garage floor and it was still messy)And this only works on the rear window, I think the other windows must be different.

As for the 4 pieces of glass in the two rear doors it has been a complete fail for me. With the success of the rear hatch glass I tore into my doors to pull the glass, throw it on the garage floor and do those. On the bronze tinted LX450 glass it did NOTHING-like spraying water on them.
When a 94 Land Cruiser showed up in a local Pick-N-Pull i went and got the glass. I thought only LX450s had the mirrored glass so was worried when these were mirrored too. Sprayed the LC glass with the Eagle One Chrome Cleaner and although there was some removal it was nothing like the rear hatch glass but I bought them and continued working away at it. See previous pic I posted on page 1. Yesterday I completely washed the glass with lots of water, dried it off, took it outside in the sun to check progress.
Glass is shot because letting the Eagle One Chrome Cleaner sit for a long ETCHES the glass.
I have a line on some used clear glass but also gathered the part numbers (new from dealer does not have metal track hardware)
Movable Glass, RIGHT Part Number: 68113-60130
Movable Glass, LEFT Part Number: 68114-60130
Fixed Glass, RIGHT Part Number: 68123-60140
Fixed Glass, LEFT Part Number: 68124-60140
Damn...I thought I had a new project! I hate the chrome tint on my 80. Guess this was to good to be true.
I have been thinking of tracking down clear glass if there is such a thing...??
For anyone looking for an alternative to the Eagle one, which appears to no longer contain Hydroflouric Acid. Whink Rust Stain Remover does the job very well. I picked up a bottle at walmart for under $6. Squirt some on a rag, rub till glass is clear, repeat for whole window. Clean with ammonia free glass cleaner when finished.
Video of how easy the tint comes off:
Unfortunately my glass has some swirls in it, which I had hoped were on the solar tint

No. I tried a small area and nothing.What about the side windows? Will this stuff work on those?
The product I used did not damage defrost lines. And I am sure the product recommended by Pascoscout didn't damage those defrost lines either.Are these acids safe to use on the defroster "wires", wondering if anyone checked to see that the wires still heat up after removing the tint using these products?
No damage to the defrost lines.The product I used did not damage defrost lines. And I am sure the product recommended by Pascoscout didn't damage those defrost lines either.
Nope the tint on the side windows does not appear to be removable. If you want clear you’ll have to purchase new glass without tint.Any updates? Seems like nobody can get the tint off the side windows...
I only tried the inside.I think its worth asking, when attempting to remove the tint on the side windows, where both sides of the glass tested? Looking into eye glass anti glare removal that might work in this application.
Did u end up trying this? The eye glass anti glass removal?eye glass anti glare removal
