  Rike cool is the protective sheet that stick to your windscreen to block sun ray.
  
  It should be about $600 - $700, check it on some car website. I traded in the reverse sensor and Ipod for it. SA told me he has to pull some money out of his pocket to give me that, even if i dun want the reverse sensor and ipod.

  In that case, get your f**king black ass out of here. You are definitely in the wrong place. Go and suck another dick somewhere else, blackie. Maybe you might save enough money to buy a bicycle spoke to ram it up your bloody ass****.

  They might give you a lousy grade protective sheet .
  Low VLT
  Poor Infrared Rejection
  Poor UV Rejection
  
  So I think you better check with your SA ....

  According to the web, the specs are quite similar to coolnlite...dun think there is an installation centre in s'pore. C&C might purchase the film from M'sia and get their own pple to do.....

  Sifu remember steven he told that his sa calledhim and ask him to change to rio n now he had to search for another car which is getz.
  
  so i think both side is the same and y the leng kee people tell u that is to make the image bad for ubi and more people will introduce people to leng kee.

  Hi Kinki,
  Maybe I am wrong but the SA I met in Leng Kee definitely more willing to tell the truth than our SA. Btw for Steven case, the SA just want him to consider, as Rio will collect early than Picanto. Behind the deal, his SA just want to get her commission earlier. Maybe can ask astroken, the SA I talk to is his SA.

  looks like i'm the more lucky one, my SA approach me probably be'cos I'm the first visitor to Leng Kee show room on the day i booked my pica. He even brought us 5 cups of drinks...coffee...milo. Not too bad for a first time buyer and first time visiting car show room. Good luck to all of pica owners, hope we will get our babe really soon........

  Hi riane70, I managed to trade-in ipod for central lock/alarm and reverse sensor. What do u mean by half leather seat? Please enlighten me!
  
  I tried to squeeze somemore but my SA said not earning alot from me liao so cannot give too many freebies. Does it have something to do with me getting min loan and min payback period? Otherwise i will call him for somemore....

  [/b]
  
  Hi Chrono,
  initially my SA told me ipod trade in for alarm & central lock & reverse sensor. but then we decided we wanted the leather seat but she told us need 1k, if half leather seat ard 500plus, so we decided to trade in ipod for 1/2 leather, the sitting areas are leather while the back of the seats are PVC. thats all about 1/2 leather.
