   yup back 3 are fine to do. take it to a specialist as said its not overly expensive and you can go back to them after a few weeks to have any bubbles pressed out.

   i did the two sides myself, was quite easy, used film from halfords, no bubbles and looks the business, they wer easy as you can take them out though, not going to attempt the rear at all, straight to the pros for that

   Yep rear is hard as fuck to do if you dont know how to beacuse of the curve the back window has, fucking imposs lol. But the pros use special templates

   I know this always comes up but is the front 2 definitely illegal to tint 30%? I see so many cars with the front 2 done.
