are you using ammonia based cleaners on the tint (i.e. Windex), if so that is most likely the reason.

I never cleaned them. I don't carry to much person in my back seat so they dont really get dirty.

its not turning blue, its turning purple. thats how my car is, i never replaced it because i really dont care for tint. my back window is a little purpleish and my 2 quater windows look blue but they will get purple after a while. its like what mike said. if anyone has cleaned your windows, they probably used ammonia on them which changes the tint. the best thing to clean tinted windows is warm water

It's probably turning blueish/purple becasue the sun is discolouring it. Easily to find with cheaper quality tint.

I've had my tint on my car for 5 years and i use windex to clean them and still looks nice and black.

I must agree with above posts. You have low quality tint. I've had mine in for 6 years and no discoloration.

yeah, either cheap tint, or the wrong cleaner but sincey ou said you dont clean them than its gotta be cheap tint. Mines 5% too and hasnt changed at all but its only been on for 4-5 months. My truck, which was done by the same place, has 15% on it and it hasnt changed color either and its been 3 years.
