In your mind ...rent free
and where to install in CPT for the best at a reasonable price

This morning on the n2 in CPT another lady was the victim so i need to get smash and grab for my sisters car

they literally run through traffic check if people have schit on the front seat and do they thing

no cops around and no one stops in traffic for these guys
 
PG Glass do it.

Is it actually a deterrent or do the criminals still smash your window with this tint? I know the glass still shatters but it is held in place by the film so you have to push the glass inwardly to gain access.
 
Tell her to put her schit on the floor.
 
I must say these days I'm getting a bit too relaxed with putting schit on my front seat like today my tab was on the passenger seat as I drove to work. This is a reminder to change my habits
 
You can also phone any dealer of your car and ask who they use as accredited installers on their new cars.

I've had Llumar 35% tint on all of my recent vehicles after seeing the results of an attempted smash and grab where the film did it's job.

I think it cost R1,400 to do it to my previous Civic.
 
It does work but it only makes it more difficult. I have seen people with anti smash and grab being smash and grabbed it just takes more hits with a bigger object. If you are stuck in traffic with nowhere to go there is not much to stop them.

Get a cattle prod as well for when they stick their arm through the window.

Check if they are going to have a "holiday special" this year. As I said in post #3, I paid R1200 last year because it was on special so it might be worth it to wait a few more weeks to save +-R300.
 
Any tint works tbh. It's a film that prevents the window from shuttering. Don't know what makes this "Smash and Grab" worth R 1000+ tbh.
You can have it done on a corner in some places for around R 200 while you wait.

Easy to spot these jobs a few months later...nice blister/bubble effect.
 
Oh lol! Is it a film coating to hold the glass together???? I thought it was just tinting so they can't see your bag on the seat.... O my, another blonde moment....:o
 
Doesn't work.

The missus was involved in a smash and grab on the way to the airport in the early hours . Film did not even slow them down. Used a spark plug.
