Are all brands of tinting films illegal? My mum had to go to the car accessory shop today to remove her car tinting because she was stopped by JPJ roadblock in the morning. She did not tell me the location of the roadblock because she was so damn angry about removing the tints. My mum told me what the JPJ officer had told her "All brands of tinting are illegal and to have your car tinted you must bring a letter from a government approved doctor to bring to JPJ for approval". I did some checking the approval only lasts for a year and must be renewed three months before the date of expiry. When these clowns tested her car for light transmission they used something that photographers use for testing their flash. My family only tinted their cars after hearing the advice that was given by the E.P.A (Environmental Protection Agency).

Hi there, in ur case, there might be two possibilities... first being ur mum maybe might be driving a luxurious car and if let say ur tinted film exceed a certain limit, they might wan some kopi money from u.. secondly is that, maybe u guys actually tinted fully black, that s y the JPJ officer asking u to get an approval letter from doctor in order for u to apply to tint ur windows completely or almost black.. and bear in mind, these need to be re-new annually, preferably three months b4 the licence expiring.. hope it helps mike! cheers! :_:

Not using 100% tinting. I guess they just want to trouble people.

I m not sure about others brand but the one I m using is Rikecool according to the spec lay down by JPJ,so in case the Jpj issue saman for tinting the Rikecool company will bear the compound,they will pay on your behalf for all compound incur.:regular_smile:

oh really? Impossible le.. i think maybe ur estima originally came with factory slightly black tinted rear window loh.. after which when u tint with v-cool, those stupid officers might have mistaken that u actually tinted black ma.. that;s y they cari pasal loh.. nowadays when u buy JDM specs car either estima, alphard etc from naza, u have a choice to stick to the black tinted rear windows or they are willing to change to the clear type at no cost! :_:

A lot of tinted film also compliant with JPJ, but when sticked onto certain car screen or window, it become illegal. Probably due to some car's original windows already tinted with coating. Example model: lancer brown color windows for wira, 407 original and etc. I suggest that every shop should have a machine to check before installation. No one will buy illegal or illegally install tinted film.

usually, the installer will give warranty against any 'potential' problems and even will ensure that the summons will be paid by themselves.... IF u got it from reliable installers laa...

 

[prodigy]

Always install tints at reliable shops, not just any Tom, Dick and Harry accessories shops.
