Default Window tint

Hey i have a 99 Z28 and on the drivers side window the tint is ripped in the middle all the way down and the passenger side window is starting to do the same. The window feels lose at the top. Was just curious if anyone else has had this problem before. Thanks any help is appreciated.

pull the panel off and there are the little metal clips that hold the felt to keep the window stable when half way down. just take em out or go get some at the auto parts store there cheap like a couple bucks. mine did it. if its done it for a while then expect that when you tint it again figure on put a window in cause it will be scratched to hell.
