[QUOTE="morrogan, post: 561465, member: 19033"] Just my personal humble opinion: if I am not mistaken, nowaday most of the car manufacturer put on IR heat absorbing, UV rejection and heat rejection glass on their car. Although the effect might not be as good as additional tinted film but when you add up the original glass value+the additional tinted film, it will most probably exceed the threshold as specified by JPJ/LTA. As such, what the manufacturer's claim is somehow valid, their film itself really does not exceed the required value specified by the authority. Only when you add up these 2 (i.e. original glass value+tinted) then the value exceeded. Take for example, visible light penetration = min 70% for front windscreen, if the original factory glass already have taken out 5%, adding on a tinted film with 70% will reduce the visible penetration to only 65% so, it is going to below the legal value.
