Yep, I had the same worries but my defroster works fine and hasn't caused any damage at all to the tint.

I dont think it will hurt you know im not sure if it is stuck on or not. I know some cars have them that way but if it was i dont think tint would pull it off dont worry.

is it true that when tint is applied to a window with defroster, do they put the tint inbeween the defroster lines and not on thop of it.....so it is just a whole bunch of tint strips?

They put the tint right over the defroster lines. I am also worried about it coming off when I get it redone.
