window tint ?

I just had my windows tinted on my 09 lancer. I dont have this prob now, but when it gets colder i might. Im worried that turning on the rear heating system to defrost the windows might ruin the tinting. Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks

anyways it wont hurt the tint

Not trying to hijack the thread but this is closely related to OP's question:

What if you have to remove the tint from the rear window will that ruin the defroster?
