Guys I'm about to get my windshield replaced. How much to tint the front windshield normally?

Say with raytech or other good brand?

Bro, you may want to check if the shop is authorized dealer for the brands listed, for warranty issues.

You will have better peace of mind knowing your windows are done properly.

Hi bro, this promotion package is offering by a tinted shop who carrying few brands. So the warranty is covered in their shop only. Since they have selling Vkool also, maybe you can ask lonely143 about what is the package name they offered with that price. Cheers

1. No issues with GPS & smart tag
2. jpj compliant
3. High heat rejection. security tint for side windows.

I interested to install Raytech Ultra70 for FW & RW, Centurion 6mil. Please PM me your best offer. TQ.

Based on my experience, Llumar (Pinnacle 50) heat rejection very bad and not value for $$$.

Is 1-2 bubbles due to dirt stuck on tint generally acceptable or is it suppose to have zero bubbles?

hi all,

I have been using V-Kool for a long time now.....recently really frustrated with it strong blocking of GPS signal......As every1 know, waze is such common apps to use now but with V-Kool, hard to get any GPS signal.....

I know I can wind up window to solve this problem but when it's raining then I'm doomed......any recommended shop tat can help me fix this issue?? I heard can cut a hole in the front tinted to detect GPS more easily??

Thanks

Hi bro, normally signal problem is happened on highest grade of premium window film. The window film is highly coated with heat resistance material (Ceramic or metal) to provide the best heat resistance so sometimes it will affect the signal of GPS, smartag etc. Lower grade film will not have this kind of problem. There are few option to solve the problem (not 100% solve):
1. Cut a square hole in the front tinted
2. Change your front tinted to lower one grade tinted. For example, your tinted now is IRR95%, you can chose IRR85% for the windscreen tinted.

Hope my suggestion can help you. Thanks a lot

Thanks for ya reply.....Many ppl have suggest me to take the no. 1 route.....Do you provide this kind of service?? How much is the charge?

The signal blockage is due to the metal in the film. Refer here for more info

I believe you are using high premium V-Kool product. What is the name of the product?
Even if solution No.1 also cant guarantee the GPS signal go through smoothly.

You can just go back to the shop where you did the V-Kool and ask them do it free for you.

If you downgrade to lower IRR film to allow the GPS signal, then the heat performance is down.
Perhaps you switch to other GPS apps such as Google Map? Have you try with other phone as well?

My car is install with high premium V-Kool product and my Waze works perfectly with my I Phone 6

Hi bro, I suggest you can just go back to the shop you fix your tinted. Normally they can provide you free service charges or maybe come out another solution for u

Install GPS re-radiating attenna to your car, and will solved the issue. Go google on this.
One forummer is selling this kit at Automotive garage(a bit expensive)

is illume brand ok? plan to tint only the front windscreen and was quoted rm550 for illume 50

Just tinted 3M Crystalline 70 front and back, and Nano 70 on sides. Done at Pana G in Subang Jaya.

So far so good, still waiting for tint to dry so that I can roll down my windows. They advised to wait 3 days and put stickers on all my power window switches, plus the demister which is a no no for 2 weeks.

Rm2.9K...not sure if that's a good deal or not because I went through my car dealer who said he discounted his part.

They were good at pointing out a defect on my hood...which was actually just a smudge in the end.

Hi guys am waiting for my new car to come out so surveying on what good tint should I get.

Prerequisites are the usuals e.g. JPJ-compliant, good heat filter, security, smartTA-friendly etc.

What's in the market today and how much do they cost?

Thanks a bunch!

I just done it for 2.2k in 3M official authorized dealer. Same setup as yours. For sure it will be more expensive if go thru car dealer as part of the profit have to paid to your car dealer.
