I find the car with acceptable heat level after parking under hot sun, and a short burst of air cond can bring the car back to good condition. Hence, i didnt do any heavy high end heat rejection tint on the car. What i did was a cheap solar tint rm800-rm200(voucher) all windows to get the darkened effect. As for security tint, it all depends on u. Do u keep expensive stuffs in the car? Ur house and office parking safety? Whats ur security requirement? For me, better save the RM 2000 ~ 3000 for something better. or, u can drive ur car for few days first, and see how thing goes. just my opinion This post has been edited by K5WHITE: Aug 25 2012, 05:58 PM

Hey guys, hav u heard of coating called G tech by the crystal pro company? And the tintin company named Rhine Pro... I need to apply coating cause where I work and stay, sometimes may hav to be parked under the sun... So for me coating is a must for me... And as for tinting, the SA told me a company named Rhino Pro, it seems they r offering 15yrs warranty, and the most important thing is they r providing security + UV & heat rejection film 2 in 1.. Have u guys heard of this company before? And lastly is it worth to spend max 5k on coating and tinting? Please giv me ur opinions, thank you This post has been edited by john2986: Aug 25 2012, 11:45 PM

Eric, how our payment to u process u expecting? Bro, when you say rewire, what does that means? Is it that there is additional wire required to be added all the way from the control panel to the rear, or a split wiring is required at some point at the rear?

Added on August 27, 2012, 9:47 amQUOTE(LYL2009 @ Aug 24 2012, 04:46 PM) You got it replaced, so did it solve the problem? I think you mentioned before it's still the same First they replaced the wiper blades alone but it was a different type. So now they have ordered the original wiper blade and arms as well. Yet to arrive. So for now, im still using the current set of wipers. But they told me they can try and get for me from an existing Optima first and then replace that when my set arrives.

Bro, where do you service and claim your car warranty? I would like to go to the same place in the future for my K5 services.
