isang ilaw... sa dome light.

People who darkly tint their front windshield should stay at home when night comes. You have no right to drive at night.

Adding more light form your headlights just blinds the other cars around you. It doesn't make it safer, YOU make it more dangerous for other motorists to be around you.

>>pwede naman siguro lumabas ng bahay. mamasahe na lang o kaya maki angkas o kaya gamit iba sasakyan.

>>magalang na sagot to. dapat pamarisan ng mga bata.

buti na lang at hindi ako ang nag tint ng sasakyan.

>>>baka nag kamali lang. baka gusto lang sabihin na hindi ilaw solusyon. alisin ang tint o gawing layt ang tent.

jetprotect, GH is right, a lot of people insist to have a super black front tint but suffers at night forcing them to upgrade to higher wattage head bulbs. throwing more glare to incoming vehicles can be very annoying and high probability to cause accidents.

if you really want a super black tint kailangan kayanin ng mata mo. respeto na lang sa nakakasalubong, yan ang responsableng tsikoteers

i suggest strip your current windshield tint, keep the rest. invest on a decent tint, than use your hard earned cash on headlight bulbs. there are many tints which offer privacy (hinde kita loob) na nde naman V-Kool level ang mahal.

hope this helps.

Try to do adjust your headlight aim first. Otherwise remove or replace your tint with a lighter shade. BTW, I've seen a car with 3M black chrome tints...outside is totally dark but inside, its clear.

[CoDer]

Lose those heavy dark tint from you windshield.

i hope na maliwanag ang point ko. wag sana magalit sa akin ang tsikoteers. kagaya sa reply mo, naka pag bigay ka ng message na maliwanag at hindi nakakainsulto. bakit? me pag galang eh. hindi kagaya ng iba na sagot ng sagot, akala mo ay may kaaway. ngayon nga lang ako humingi ng opinyon eh. sarap pa ng nakuha ko sagot. sana pala personal na lang ako nag tanong. the title state clearly,

help,dark tinted windshield, what bulb to use?i am asking what bulb to use. sana kagaya mo ang naging sagot sa akin.

sama sa pakiramdam eh. wala pa ako ginagawa pero parang nagkasalubong na kami sa kalsada at sinilaw ko yung nakasalubong ko.
kaya nga ako nag post ng help. wala pa ako ginagawa at stock bulb pa rin ang gamit ko.

tnx ulit sir xto.

yun na nga bro ang mangyayari when you change your stock bulbs for the reason "you have dark tints".. the solution is just simple right in front of you...

changing the bulb wont help you with your dark tints.. better to replace them if you still want to have privacy..

but still if you want to keep your tints and opt for the bulbs better to use ALL-Weather type of bulbs.. (osram/narva/bosch) yung osram may 80/60w that can be dropped in but for 100/90w bulbs like bosch you need to have separate relays and wiring to support the power requirement of the bulbs..

also make sure your head lights are properly aimed..

siguro iniiwasan lang nila na mag palit ka ng HID bulbs without changing the headlamp housing.. dami kasi ngayon na naka HID just for the fun of glaring others.. sa totoo lang ang hirap kasalubong ng naka HID na sobrang glaring..sakit sa mata... kung mag HID ka better to have a projector type headlamps

OT: nakakatuwa lang pag naulan yung mga naka HID talo din pala ulan lang katapat.. hehehehe

thanks sir for that very good tips. i used to have clearglass. wala nga pati visor eh. replacement windshield pa. kaya lang nag ka tint, someone offer it for free. tira nya lang daw kasi. syempre payag ako sa libre.
ayaw ko ng HID. simple reason.....BADget. he he. sa yellow bulb and other sobrang nakakasilaw, ayaw ko rin kasi ilan na ang kasalubong ko na naghintuan kami ng harapan eh. nasisilaw ako. kaya ask ako kun ano bulb dapat gamitin. naghahanap ako ng mas maraming alam sa akin re head lamp bulbs, para wag mag kamali. he he.
salamat ulit.

H4 Phillips Extreme Power + 80%...
1300 bili ko ng aken..

mas malayo bato ng ilaw, mas maliwanag, plus ung wattage niya keri yung stock set up ng headlamps ko. wala ng relay relay na kelangan.

you might want to check it out. good luck sa project and ingat sa pagddrive sa gabi...

[1D4LV]

actually tama sila. i had a full dark front windshield tint before. i tried using HIDs, yellow bulbs, pero hirap pa din ako sa gabi. tumatanda na eh.

so i decided to strip it off, and leave lang a visor type. ayun, maayos na driving ko sa gabi.

to conclude, hindi solution yung bulbs, ang solution is to remove the one that hinders your vision, in this case, is yung tints.

[Galactus]

TS: Ganun talaga si GH, pag medyo matagal ka na dito sa tsikot, masasanay ka rin. He means well, medyo magaspang lang ang dating sometimes (like me, hehehe).

Shift na lang to a better tint which allows good light penetration. Mahal ang 3M, so I would suggest Platinum.

[swordsman]

mali planned solution to your problem. tanggalin na lang maniac tint, a este, dark tint pala, bago maaksidente o makaaksidente - kahit libre pa yan.

tama si Galactus, ganyang lang talaga si GH sumagot, medyo may pagka-sarcastic, lalo na kung parang common sense lang katapat ng tanong.

[c_cube]

install lighter tint or better no tint at all para clear talaga.

huwag mong masamain sagot ni sir GH, ganyan lang talaga yan. he meant good naman.

(pagkabasa ko palang ng thread title, alam ko ng may mag rereact ng medyo masungit)

[CoDer]

Ah yes baka may mag PM sayo na Mod asking sorry in behalf of GH.

Well unanimous na sagot sayo regarding your enquiry TS. Opt for lighter tint or better yet no tint at all for your windshield.

* all tsikoteers >> my apology maam and sir for all my action and reactions. as others said, baka hindi pa lang ako sanay, i agree, nagulat talaga ako. and siguro, iba iba kasi ang interpretation natin sa binabasa natin sa nadidinig at nakikita. for all the replies, salamat. all those surely enlightens.

ah libre naman pala eh...

as long as you use H4 bulbs OK na OK yan kahit mataas ang wattage!!... Para hindi ka maka silaw or glare ng kasalubong MAKE SURE YOUR HEADLIGHTS ARE PROPERLY AIMED!! SEARCH MO SA GOOGLE PAG AIM NG HEADLIGHTS!!. may kink up yan that need the proper alignment dapat yung beams are overlapping.. yung HID kasi maganda kung naka projector ka.. pero madami pa din na maangas na gusto lang makasilaw na mga goons.. kung properly aimed for sure ganda ng buga ng ilaw at hindi makakasilaw sa iba...

also make sure your HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY ARE CLEAN.. it can be done for as low as 400 pesos each maybe lower sa iba..

TIP: if you are in a traffic or stop light, turning OFF your headlights can help to prolong its life and avoid darkening (burned due to heat especially if you are using high wattage bulbs) but don't forget to turn them ON again once you GO..
