Will take down upon Mikey's request.

After seeing this picture, it pissed me off to see that thieves will vandalize somebody's personal property just to steal something or just to hate just because they can't work.

Obviously, some type of security is needed in order to avoid thieves to actually breaking into the car. So after watching a show called, "It Takes A Thief" from the Discovery channel, I notice they used "Window Laminate" for all the windows and the parents from the show couldn't penetrate the window.

So I did further research and notice Honda-tech hasn't talked about this. So I was wondering has anybody done this to there cars and how are they?

Also, it seems this laminate is only as efficient as it will be if the car is properly equipped and modified for anti-theft. So this is a nice addition for those with storms and harsh weathers or don't want shattered glass everywhere when a thief breaks in. : thumbdown:

And I'm talking about layers of security for this to actually be as efficient as it should be. So I'm assuming this combination will make the laminate very efficient:

- GPS (Relocated)
- Alarm with knock sensors. (Relocated)
- Relocated Fusebox/Battery
- Relocated Hoodcable (Or maybe some kind of lock mechanism)
- Removed/Disconnected door rods
- Two Dustboots (Those wheel locks)
- Kill-switches

Here is some more technical information about the window laminates. Notice how much is needed to stretch or break the film.

damn thats nice...

 

pretty much, looks effective . With disconnected handles and windows with that **** on it. hmm..

 

how much would it run for randolph? and wtf are you doing in denmark!?

 

guys, guys, guys. the reason those windows arent like our windshield, is in case of an emergency you can get out fast if your door wont open. trust me my safety isnt worth it

 

i looked into something like this before, the company had ads in various car mags about 6months to a year ago i think. the only problem being that they were really expensive, i was quoted $700 for my 94 integra... i took ten minutes and found the link.

Only to a minor degree.

While tint will help prevent the glass from shattering and flying everywhere, you can easily push through it after cracking it.

makes sense...if its that hard to break into...imagine if you're stuck inside the car after an accident and need to break out???
