[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 495572, member: 4527"] Thanks for the info saat, very sad thing to learn the hard way. Lesson here is never trust the salesman! All those listed down above, I am well aware of when making my decision to proceed with my Elite installation. You should have done your research because most of those VKool user I know, they too aware what they are getting themselves into. I am having Elite in both my car and have tried 3 variants of the Elite, 2005, 2007 and 2010. The 2005 and 2007 when comes to remote control or SmartTag transmission, very bad. I had to wind down window to open my gate or go extremely slow through SmartTag gantries. Sometimes I just give up and wind down window and hold my SmartTag outside.. The 2010 variant is much better. I believe the metallic coating is reduced. The metallic coat is to restrict or reduce IR penetration.. there's no best of both world. I apply tinting mainly due to blocking of IR penetration which is heat. Elite has one of the highest IR filtering properties in the industry while UV filtering is nothing difficult as all scored well. Elite is a 70% visible light penetration film and that's what allowable by the JPJ for the windshield. Don't forget all windscreen has coatings with few percentage of light filtration, even at 1%, it will reduce the Elite tinted windshield to only 69% visible light penetration, so consider illegal liao.
