depends on when you tinted them. did you go back the week after you got them done to get it pressed again?
you shoiuld take it back to the shop and tell them to fix it.

tell your tint shop to re-tint it and use clear elmers glue where the dot matrix is, if they press them all in and use the heat gun correctly it will all adhere.

I would like to know if the clear elmers glue method works. I have the same problem, and pressing on the dot-matrix w/ fingers just won't work.

yeah... i have that same exact problem, but i took it back like, 8 times (literally) to the tint guy and it's STILL not good! I thought it was a problem everyone had (and had given up on) but it's correctable??
