I would suggest not trying the heat at this point as more of the glue has adhered to the glass and you could mess the film up pretty badly. Heat should only be applied when still the film is still wet and moveable. The only thing I could suggest is if you have some small bubbles that will not go away (after several weeks of the car getting warm out in the sun) I would make a TINY hole in the bubble (with a pin) and apply some heat. Usually this method works well for an after the fact fix, should lay right down....
Noted with thanks... I'll keep that in mind as there are 4-5 very tiny holes in each window...they are barely visible unless you get real close...but they are still bugging the carp out of me.
