ano maganda gamitin na ilaw pag dark tint?

[miko101130]

medium tint like BC 20 or 10 ng 3M ok na yan for security and heat rejection...
mahirap ka na makilala sa loob o mamukaan...

ang dadami vehicles na super super dark tint... siguro sa gabi sobrang lalaki ng mata ng mga drivers noon..

sir slvrsrfr2301, kaya mas kita mo halogen fogs mo kasi sa lower immediate front area ng vehicles nakaka aim ang fogs plus yellowish talaga sila by design, so perceived ng eyes mo na angat sa contrast yung fogs... tapos dahil medyo dark tint ka kaya konti ang light from the headlight na nakaka balik sa eyes, mumuka tuloy mahina headlight...

mas noticeable yan sir pag nag highway ka like NLEX at SLEX tapos dark tint ka, halos wala ka makita.... very dangerous...

sir, my hl's are running on wurth gold bulbs that are 100/80 watts "aimed downwards to prevent blinding oncoming drivers, more yellow than narva, and dilaw talaga sya, like yellow bulbs." i was thinking na baka mas kita yung stock color or nb+ kesa sa yellows on dark/medium/light or simply my tint, di ako ganun ka hirap, even my dad, and medyo ok na nga sakin nasanay na ako, its just that i just want to improve lighting without changing tint pero without compromising others, pero if no choice, palit tint ako

OT
hindi ba bawal ang "yellow bulb" like bosch all weather bulb?

alam ko pag pure yellow, pero if allweather pwede.... yun alam ko ha...

I have hp quantum 19 sa windshield ko plus philips xv, di naman ako nahihirapan. Yun nga lang pag umulan na at black asphalt eh saka ako nahihirapan.

[slvrsrfr2301]

update :D kanina, 5 am nung umalis ako, malakas ang ulan at madilim, pero di ako nahirapan kitang kita ko daan (not like before na parang naka spotlight ako) pero hindi ako hirap sa visibility :D pero nung naghati na, siguro around 5:30 or 6...dun mejo di na halata ilaw pero maliwaliwanag naman na

[wezz_zzew]

think of the other drivers specially the oncoming lane. courtesy is contagious. only use necessary light and if the tint is impairing your vision, the brighter than legal headlight only makes other drivers unsafe not to mention irate.

I agree with jick.cejoco. Pag ako nakasalubong mo tapos sobrang lakas ng ilaw mo, tatapatan din kita ng high beam ko. Isipin mo na lang yung feeling na nadidiliman ka pero nasisilaw ka. Ang hirap di ba?

^_^ SPOILED

my friend uses super white bulbs.

learned that impairment from him on driving with dark tint and went against it, dapat pala di ko nasobrahan. had the lightest tint applied on my ride and it has been messing up with my cooling especially during noontime. i had to put on the fan to medium especially if i have a back seat passenger. should've applied medium dark instead.

First of all my deepest apologies to the thread starter for what I'll put down here... Please do not misconstrue it as bashing or insulting in any forrm...

Dark tints on one's front windshield is, in my opinion, one of the most hare brained ideas ever... To top it all, the car owner will upgrade his/her headlights just so he/she can see out at night...

Safety is paramount when handling a one ton piece of equipment... Seeing out at night is even more critical... In the posts here one can notice the statements like "oo nga mahirap sa gabi pero ok sa araw"...

My question is: WHY???

If it's simply just to keep the heat off especially when the car's parked under the sun, then you have to be obsessive-compulsive enough to attach the sun shields. I just cannot get the idea of privacy issues but hey we are all entitled to our own ideas and opinions... I now wonder what the drivers of these totally tinted cars do inside??? Hmmmmmm.....

Ghosthunter said it best: a brick is the best solution!!!!

PEACE EVERYONE!!!!!!

hmmm hindi lang naman habang naka-park naiinitan ang kotse, so sa case na un wala kang choice kundi magpalagay ng tint. pero wag naman ung sobrang dilim, medium tint at most. kung mura lang talaga ang V-Kool mas maganda sana un ipalagay sa kotse. sa case kasi ng jazz ang laki ng windshield (sabi ng SA ko kasing laki daw ng starex windshield) so kailangan talaga ng tint. pansin mo ang difference sa cabin temperature pag tinted.

sa issue naman ng privacy, may kakilala akong lady driver na gusto hindi sya kita sa loob para maiwasan ung pam-bu-bully sa kanya ng ibang drivers sa kalsada.

ito ang isang reason kung bakit nagdadark tints ang iba, para iwasan ang mga nag-wowonder at gustong usisain ang loob ng kotse ng ibang tao, gustong tignan lahat ng ginagawa or mga gamit ng inuusisa nilang kotse, hindi nila alam baka yung naguusisang yun is naghahanap lang ng tsempong magnakaw, or nag sta-stalk lang. just like TS said, meh naka-initan more likely and nagpapalamig lang, hindi natin memorize behavior ng ibang tao, kaya its better safe than sorry.

just be courteous nalang sa daan, and respect other drivers. yun lang.

I understand their need for privacy wag lang sana at the expense of the other drivers na binubulag nila

[Manilablock]

Pwede ba kung multi-layer ka ng magic tint? Ung tint na pag naaarawan ay nag darken.

Kasi kung kailangan mo heavy tint pag tirik ang araw pero sa gabi mag lighten up ung tint para hindi ka na gumamit ng pambulag na headlights.

Minsan kasi pag meron ako nakakasalubong (or minsan asa likod ko at naka hi-beam) na pambulag na-temp ako na basagin ang mga headlights

it happened on guam. a kid was joyriding in his parents' car. the parent, not knowing who had the car, reported it to the police as stolen. the police saw the car and gave chase. the kid, fearing for repercussions, drove above the speed limit evading police for about half an hour. the kid was blockaded and was even more fearful and tried to drive past police cars almost running over one of the cops. it became a high speed chase and since the car was very darkly tinted, the police did not know it was a minor. with a probable cause of malicious and dangerous act. the police had a reason to fire a couple of shots at the evading car. when the car was stopped, the now victim child was identified as one of the sons of the vehicle owner.
lesson learned, now, it is against the law to install tint on the windshield more than 6 inches below the roof line.

this was the law ever since in continental north america nad now being enforced here in makati due to the fx armed men incident

no idea that guam as a u.s. territory did not have such a law legislated/enforced

[docgorio]

I'll try my best to answer the replies after my post....

My niece also owns a Jazz... Her front windshield's not tinted...

Her solution? Put the blower to at least speed 3... It makes no diff to your fuel consumption anyway...
About the male drivers bullying her? Again simple solution: she's trigger happy with her horn, which happens to be a Bosch Fanfaren, not the squeaky stock ones...

Correct. Pag ganyan na super liwanag yung ilaw, tapos humihingi ako ng low beam at ayaw ako pagbigyan .... pumapagitna ako sa kalsada at naka-high din ilaw ko. Bangaan na lang.

[docgorio]

Francis - the best solution is still Sir ghosthunter's brick........

Lalo na pag stoplight at ayaw talaga ibaba ilaw. Tinatapat ko rin sa harap ng sasakyan niya yung akin para dalawang ilaw nakatutok sakanya. Hahaha.

Yung sa kaibigan ko nakamedium tint siya na "llumar" at hindi kita sa loob pag araw pero sa gabi angliwanag kahit stock HL lang.

Ako nga naka ordinary platinum tint sa windshield sobrang linaw sa gabi kahit umuulan. di din kita yung loob pag naarawan kahit nakatutok sa windshield - medium pa iyun ha.
