You didn't seriously just attempt to correct someones spelling/grammar only to immediately follow up with garbage; are you? What's "thieft"?

Oh, and how about $14,000 just for a mid size sedan?

THAT is "A LOT".

isn't that 3M window laminate that's advertised for hurricane protection basically the same stuff, just thinner and a whole lot cheaper than ballistic laminate armor? i'm thinking two or three coats of the cheap stuff would be enough to deter thieves. even one layer might do the job.

Then the window would just break without any noise or mess, making their job easier. Much like regular tint. The hurricane laminate basically just makes it so glass doesn't fly everywhere. I'm convinced that this would be the only effective means of vehicle security here in Florida: http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/africa/9812...e.thrower.car/

best part is, the film isnt like rock hard ro anything.. its flexible to a certain extent.. it'll prolly just hold all the glass bits together on a window that small.. just leave your doors unlocked..

a)you already know theyre going to break in, why have to have broken windows, too
2)theyre going to get in reguardless.
L)it might not be legal to do that on a civi vehicle b/c of potential for crash related accidents... what if you get into an accident, and they cant get in the vehicle to save you.. not talking bridges... talking some asshole running a red light and T boning you

you'd be FUCKED...

or..

$)sell the truck and buy something less theif proned

Or next time someone breaks in track them down dis-embowl them and then crucify them on your front lawn as a warning.
