HID & Xenon - JPJ Crackdown

BH, Yeah lah these freaks with power bestowed upon them are getting out of hand. I remember when I first got my E36 in 2005, it was the night where an old forumer had a BBQ in PD for BMWCM. I only took delivery of my car that very Saturday afternoon at 12pm on the dot. Took the car in for the usual check ups, changed my radiator, fluids, etc etc etc etc... by the time everything was done it was nearly 8pm. I noticed that my number plate was the one with the metal numbers, so I decided that I was going to change it on Monday.

That night I drove down to catch up with the boys in PD and just after I hit the PD road there was a road block. Since I had no issues, no summons, no HID, seatbelt on and my car was stock standard. I got pulled over asked to get out of the car, into the police station to be interrogated. They wanted to know where I got the car from. At first I tought there was an E36 that was stolen around the area, but one of the cops actually asked me ' Betul ke mampu beli kereta mewah' I was like WTF ??? Thank God these in this age we are connected via our computers and these idiots after 20mins decided to check and VOILA there it was.. clearly stated that the name was transferred to my name at 11:25 am on that very same day.

So being frustrated they summoned me for my number plate and no amount of explanation was gonna get me out of this one and heres the kicker... in exactly 2 weeks I got a warrant of arrest for not settling the summon promptly.... well I did take off by yelling at them ' Kenapa India tak boleh pandu BM kah ' and that was due to my frustration.

What a wonderful country we live in.

bro i drive my car 24/7 day and night . at that time my tinting was: Rear windscreen: 100%, rear side windows 160% front windows: 140% basically all double layer. front windscreen was: 70%clear.

Now its all changed to 80% all windows at the back, front windows 70% and front windscreen 60% clear.

As i was installing the tinting at my shop in Kampung Tunku. there was a JPJ officer there. he said how nice and dark my car was. and that if he ever came across my car in a roadblock he wouldnt "KACAU" me.

Some police and JPJ officers, say they dont usually Kacau drivers with single or double digit number plates.

I wouldnt say that was fair? would u?

Not fair bro....ini mcm pilih kasih nie.:eek:
 
Depending on the stock market, richest man in the world at one time recently was Mukesh Ambani. So who says Indians can't afford good things? The world is being flooded with talented Indians now. Notice how many CEO/CFO/COO positions are now being taken up by Indians? So this prejudice is surprising, especially in this time and age.

By the way, I am Chinese, but do a lot of business in India.....

not only about the HID, car tinted also very strict!

i just send my car to puspakom to do the ownership transfer, all (new/old cars) the tinted film has to be remove/tear ON THE SPOT!:eek::stupid:

mine also kena remove, and i saw many new car owner tearing their tinted film with angry face!....

:listen:will tint after few months when everything is settle down....:listen:

Apparently, Puspakom and JPJ have two different standards. While JPJ allows certain percentage of light penetration, Puspakom does not even allow 95% light penetration. Let's put it this way - a 100% clear tinting also not acceptable. That's Puspakom. It has nothing to do with JPJ. Just different standards. I know it's weird. I hope I have the answers.

Dear Bro's & Sisters....

:listen:Watched the latest 999 programe on Tv3 . Got it from there that , soon or later JPJ is going to start a massive crackdown on heavily tinted cars, HID & Xenon installed cars . Min saman will be Rm 2000 ( for the 1st warning ) or jail & Min saman of Rm 4000 ( second offence-fail to remove ) or jail . :eek::eek::eek:

Hmmm.. now i am worried :smokin:.!! How about you guys?

Curiosity.!!! Do they smack all type and range of HID & Xenon ? or there is a power / standard range than can escape ?

I bet there must be some sifu's already study this matter in and out. Please advice lor..sama sama cabutzzzz :burnout:

Bro, I don't know where you get those saman figures from. So ridiculous. No wonder you are worried. If it was from Parti TV3, then it was a big lie. That's what they do best. Well, this is the latest. Apparently, the police also having a crackdown on HID. This is the good news. Expect to pay no more than RM300. That is the maximum compound. You might be asked to pay less after rayuan. Considering this, the next best possible action could be:

1) Change to a PIAA normal bulb rated 4700K 55W at RM300. You can consider you already kena saman once, the only difference is that after this you will be worry free to drive at night. At least you own the bulb!

2) Buy a new BMW. Interest rate 1.38% (1-3-8 translated as tiap-tiap hari senang kaya). Cheap interest rate, good number, good meaning! Bila lagi..?)

3) Bring this matter to parliament.

OEM spec is 3400K. But, as you mentioned earlier any modification (even if it is 99.9% close to OEM spec) is still illegal. So, that gives me an excuse to buy a new car:rock:. He he ..

OEM spec is actually 4300K if u look at ur HID bulb. 3000K is Initial D fog lamp yellow.
 
I have read form another forum that his wire on his HID was cut by the officers when his car was stopped at a road block because they were cracking down on HID, how true i am not too sure but it is sure not logical to cut someones headlight wire in the night.

i feel most of this HID problem is form the wiralution and the kancilution not properly installing the HID causing massive glare to the other drivers. I hae actually tired a China made HID kint on my car for one night and took it off straight a way coz it was just too blinding to the other driver. another way is they get original hid with d2s base and modify a H4 base on and without a reflector(to reduce the hi beam effect) to suit their car but they always go out of focus and cause glare.(i have actually tried it before coz mech gave me his HID from a merz to play with)
 
helooo..jgn takut..kalau original from factory..dia org xkacau..tp kalau modified..mgkn kacau..tp h.i.d ade 2suis..kalau dkt roadblock tkr kuning..bleh ape...
 
Err like this ok what:thefinger: I got eyesore looking at normal yellow bulb:thefinger:

Why all this officers still living in dark ages:thefinger: Wake up lar:thefinger: Dun they learn from recent poll result:smokin:

Fuyoooh, Initial M, your car lights can light up a padang bola la bro.

How does the driving lights output from the E39 HID compare to your E36. Been told on the E39, it's not so bright with HID.

Hahahaha. Actually its the fog light that is glaring. Our headlamp r projector so its more focus. Every time got rdblock just switch off the fog lar. I believe my E36 more focus than E39. Dunno bout others as my E39 using aftermarket headlamp while E36 is ori.
 
hahahahahaha, I just got busted last night... Just my luck. By cops somemore. Is the law enforced yet ? Yes they wanted to cut my wires, but I tought only JPJ was authorised to do that. Anyways I told the cop very sarcasticly, but politely this ' Encik ingat saya beli barang ini dengan air liur saya kah. nak tukar pun kene ada duit lah' After ding dongin' for about 20 minutes I was let of with a warning. Heres the weird part...My fog lights were not HID, but is one of these 4000k bulbs kinda thing that has a yellowish whiteish glow, he said that was illegal too. At this point I knew he had nothing against me and was looking for a fast buck, so I told him to summon me if he wanted to. He let me off with just a warning, but not before asking me how much is the E36 worth these days... funny guy.

Normally I said its come ori wt the car as its Msport version(goreng lar). I even offer them to open the hood. Best thing is mine u cant see the wires or ballast anywhere in engine compartment. How to cut the wire??:thefinger:
Then I said German are much advance than Malaysian. Even my yr 97 car aircond is digital. HID is technology not a crap:thefinger:
