I've had Llumar installed on my '85 Westy with good results.  It does not
turn purple.

Your cabinets DO NOT have to be removed.  They can get back there with their
tools and long arms.  The tint template is cut from the outside of the
window.  Make sure you deal with a reputable shop that provides a lifetime
warranty.

I just started removing 10-year-old tint from my '84 Westy.  What a job!
Use a hairdryer to soften the tint and pull gently.  Make sure you are
pulling both layers of the tint.  Use rubbing alcohol to clean the glue
residue.
