hi all. long time dont go to puspakom.

do we still need to remove the windscreen and front tint for puspakom inspection in 2023? (selling car)
*
Just went to Puspakom the other day.
Windscreen not tinted, whole car tinted with clear security film with almost no tinting color.
I took a gamble to not remove the security film.
Result:
Ketulusan cahaya: HDPN- 78% HDPN S.KANAN- 68% HDPN S.KIRI- 68% (LULUS)

Without tinting front already scored 78% (Passing is above 70%), so with tinting, I highly recommend you remove it or risk going back to redo the inspection, which btw they no longer accept same day reinspection.

Thanks guys. seems the rule still applies but must meet the new VLT criteria. I better tear off the front windscreen tint (50% vlt)

Better remove both front windows tinting as well!
Else confirm will fail regardless of follow JPJ specs or not.
These are done using their equipment under shaded area so will minus more VLT.

yeah that is what i did back in the old days. what i noticed they pouspakom fella didnt bother to test the windows at all LoL.

Tinting is one of the main reason for reinspection (more $$ for them).
Maybe you're lucky they didn't check your windows.

But then again, that day I was there, a car for trade in with faulty brake lights also can pass..

i think ,normal car glass without tint already not 100% vlt

so even follow jpj spec tint, final vlt will be below the spec. does jpj have a "range" of vlt?

You're right!

This was my Puspakom report for a Perodua Kenari.
Front - no tint
Sides - Clear security film.

Results:
HDPN- 78% HDPN S.KANAN- 68% HDPN S.KIRI- 68%

So best to remove tints before inspections or high chance of failing with any tinting film.
