Finally I found the cheapest tinting promotion.
A lot of them include Xtra charge to take out the old film.
But this is free. Just nett RM 138
But I need to find out about this:
What is Visible Light Transmittance (VLT%)?
VLT is the amount visible light(at 380-780nm wavelength) that is allowed by the glazed glass to pass through into your car or room. The lower the VLT, the darker the film and the lower the amount of Visible Light passes through your tinted glass.
Under the regulations of the Road Transport Authority of Malaysia (JPJ), Front windscreen must have > 70% VLT and Side & Rear windscreen must have > 50% VLT.

Tips on choosing tints:
1) Price – Must not be too expensive and not too cheap. If too expensive can’t afford or feel waste, if too cheap scare later quality not good. Haha…
2) Brand – Normally ppl will go for those brand that in the market for quite some time and with good reputation and without any problem.
3) Offer / Promotion – You have to secure a good deal before you make the decision like they will bundle with free car mat, travel vouchers, promotion package for festive season etc.
4) Warranty – Look for those tinting that give you long warranty hence it will be hassle free, must be min 5years of warranty.
5) Location – Choose the tint shop that’s near to you and have a lot of branches in case anything happen you could just go to any of the branch to get it fixed.
6) Specs – Choose tinting with good specs that will reject most heat. Normally ppl will check and compare below:-
-TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejected)
TSER is the percentage of the total solar energy that is rejected. TSER includes visible light, infrared radiation and ultraviolet energy. The higher the percentage, the higher the percentage of solar energy deflected. Most tinting shops use Infra Red Rejection (IRR) as a guide to the level of heat rejection. However, IRR only covers a fraction of TSER. Internationally, TSER is used as a guide as it is a more accurate way of measuring heat rejection. If the percentage is higher then it will be better in heat rejection. 60% will be good enough.
-Ultraviolet (UV)
UV is the percentage of ultraviolet energy deflected away from the window film. Ultraviolet rays can cause upholstery and furnishings to fade. It can also cause skin damage and skin cancer.
-Visible Light Transmission (VLT)
VLT is the amount of visible light that passes directly through filmed glass. The darker the tint, the lower the visible light transmitted. According to JPJ, the regulations require at least 70% of Visible Light Transmission (VLT) for the front windscreen and a minimum of 50% for the sides and rear windscreen.
-Security Film
The performance of Security / Safety films rely solely on the thickness of the film. Thicker films will endure a higher break point, absorbing higher LB / inch2 (pound per inch2), thus the harder to penetrate the window. Thickness of Security/Safety films are measured in terms of Mil. which converts to Microns – 1M = 25 Micron. Security / Safety flim thicknesses ranging from the lower end of 4Mil / 6Mil.
-TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejected)
TSER is the percentage of the total solar energy that is rejected. TSER includes visible light, infrared radiation and ultraviolet energy. The higher the percentage, the higher the percentage of solar energy deflected. Most tinting shops use Infra Red Rejection (IRR) as a guide to the level of heat rejection. However, IRR only covers a fraction of TSER. Internationally, TSER is used as a guide as it is a more accurate way of measuring heat rejection. If the percentage is higher then it will be better in heat rejection. 60% will be good enough.
-Ultraviolet (UV)
UV is the percentage of ultraviolet energy deflected away from the window film. Ultraviolet rays can cause upholstery and furnishings to fade. It can also cause skin damage and skin cancer.
-Visible Light Transmission (VLT)
VLT is the amount of visible light that passes directly through filmed glass. The darker the tint, the lower the visible light transmitted. According to JPJ, the regulations require at least 70% of Visible Light Transmission (VLT) for the front windscreen and a minimum of 50% for the sides and rear windscreen.
-Security Film
The performance of Security / Safety films rely solely on the thickness of the film. Thicker films will endure a higher break point, absorbing higher LB / inch2 (pound per inch2), thus the harder to penetrate the window. Thickness of Security/Safety films are measured in terms of Mil. which converts to Microns – 1M = 25 Micron. Security / Safety flim thicknesses ranging from the lower end of 4Mil / 6Mil.
7) Color of the film – It’s important to choose the color that suit to your body paint! Remember to match if not you will regret!
