Cool, with my discount I can some tint for dirt cheap, it might be worth giving it a shot.

yeah, I helped do mine, it didn't seem hard at all, make sure you heat shrink it before putting it on the inside of the glass.

I have 5% on the back and 35% on the sides... in MI nothing is legal on the sides but 35% is dark enough that it's noticeable but you can still see in.

Not sure of any sites, but have you done a search on LS1tech or LS1.com? Someone might have typed one up there. Mainly cutting it to fit, then shrinking it to the window, then getting the air bubbles out, and also make sure you push the bubbles out vertically, not horizontally, or it'll just crease your tint.

start small and flat if possible it doesn't come off real easy, also use the kit with the fluid (there is a homemade version but that stuff works fine)
