Thanks, OP!
I already bought tempered glass for my 6+, but I bought the back screen protector for it and tempered glass for my wife's 5c!
I hope this sale continues when they sell the tempered glass for the 6+. I'll definitely get a couple.

It seems they have this sale almost every other week. Sometimes it's 90% off. If you follow slickdeals, you'll know what I'm talking about: http://slickdeals.net/newsearch.php...ontpage&q=xtremeguard&showposts=0&titleonly=1
The protectors didn't start squeaking when using after a few days, the image wasn't as clear, the shape wasn't even close to perfect (especially the back), when removing the protectors, a layer of glue stuck on the back (just the once though, installed new ones a bunch of times).
Not really worth it even with the discounts. I eventually took them off after two months and still have a few laying around.
Hate to tell you this but they all leave an adhesive on the back when you remove them. Your arguing against the characteristic of wet apply screen protectors. They are all like that. You can go glass or dry and get a different outcome. I can pay $.75 for theirs or $20 for a zagg that is made with the exact same materials and when I remove it, its the same.
Thanks for the code. For that price and free shipping it's worth a try. I'm a fan of invisible shield by Zagg...but had to try these first.
ordered based on this deal. I ordered a bunch of different ones, but all of them are too small. There are a whole bunch of threads in the accessories section to hold off on purchasing screen protectors - they all do not go to the edge
ordered a tempered glass and dry install screen protector for $9. Thanks OP! Considered the back protector, but realized I would never go without case due to the camera lens and don't want to mess with the install only for it to come off when changing cases
I bought two of the dry install screen protectors and one wet in the stall back protector.
Not impressed with the quality, though I have not put them on the device yet. The dry obviously isn't going to fit all the way across the screen (a problem with most dry protectors) and the cutouts don't seem terribly precise. As for the back protector, it is very very basic, and they didn't even put it in packaging when they shipped it to me just slipped into a pouch that wasn't even long enough to hold the whole thing.
Probably not even going to bother putting them on and have already ordered some BSE skins. Oh well, the whole experiment only cost me about three or four dollars anyhow, and they shipped very quickly, to their credit.
This was for the 6 Plus.
As noted, I have not attempted to put them on and so cannot speak to whether they leave any residue. However, I have never ever had residue left on my phone after using any wet install product. Not once.

Some residue with definitely happen on the back due to the aluminum. I've had it happen on the 5/5S and the iPads. Doesn't matter the brand either. I bought the extreme guard for the 6 Plus and when I decided I didn't want to use the back skin anymore I took it off and some of the adhesive stuck to the back. Not a big deal since it rubs off real easily but still a pain in the butt.
I've had one of the wet install ones on my rMini for about 10 months and I like it. It takes a bit to install and dry but it wipes clean well and hasn't budged. It has a little different feel than some other dry install screen protectors I've used on other devices but I actually prefer the feel. I ordered last week Wednesday with this same coupon and I got my order Monday. For the price it's definitely worth a try.
I received the xtreme guard glass model and it was all busted. They have good customer service and took care of it, but the shipping was through the us mail in a soft padded envelope that had no protection against bending and such.
