Hi Adeline,
First of all, what car are you driving. It is because of the LTA
regulations on Tinted films. You can click this
The following requirements must be met when installing tinted
films:
a) They must not be of the reflective type.
b) They must be tested for compliance with light transmittance
requirements by a competent agent accepted by LTA e.g. Standards,
Productivity and Innovation Board (SPRING) and authorised vehicle
inspection centres.
c) The resultant light transmittance for the front windscreen and
two front passenger windows must be at least 70%.
d) The resultant light transmittance for the rear windscreen and
the rear passenger windows must be at least 50%.
e) The front windscreen must not prevent, obstruct or interfere
with the transmission of signals between the In-vehicle Unit (IU)
and Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) facility.
If not approved by LTA, then they advise you to remove the film. So
far only V-kool and Huper Optik is approved by LTA.
However, if you car window is tinted already, my advise to check
thier package so that you may not want to get worried whether it
comply with the LTA regulations. V-kool will perform a test to see
whether the car is suitable certain package.
