In fact he owned 2.....both were red, 1 he owned in Portugal with the euro retangular lights....we immigrated to the states in 1970, where he bought the same car...only it had the us style 4 round headlight set ...

sounds to me like the adhesive of the tint has lifted the material that the defrost is based on!
your defrost may still work.....but with less effectiveness!
don't like my rear tint color, but I'm afraid to remove mine for this reason!

Note the leather covered dash....and I don't understand the year 1990, the last m6's were built in 5/88 with only a hand full being 89's! I don't think there were any 90's! However, being a RHD UK market High...
