Will it guard against rear window breakages. My car was broken into thru the rear passenger window. Thief took my GPS and MP3 player. Smash and grab.

It will alert you if some one tampers with the vehicle only with the two way remote once its within range. but it will not stop a thief from smashing your window n stealing stuff. It just might make them think twice wen they see u have an alarm system..

The Viper does have shock sensor, thus if someone breaks a window the alarm will go off.

If you install the motion sensor it will definitely guard against that. You can have windows open and just put your hand in the vehicle and the alarm sounds! Very good alarm!

It make if the shock sensor can pick up the impact. What you would need is vipers add on window breakage sensor buy it from Amazon items cheaper. Here it is on vipers website http://www.viper.com/car/accessories/product/506t/audio-glass-break-sensor

thieves can easily break windows without sending a large enough shock wave to set off the alarm. (usually they use porcelain pieces 1/4th inch spark plug fragments) To protect your self from that, grab a 508D proximity sensor. It will warn if they get too close (and notify you) and if they reach in the alarm goes off. Look it up. Its about 25.00 .

Absolutely, ours is 100% secure even after 5 years of use! It is not meant to stay on while driving, but I have left it on for short distances and it has been fine. It is said to hold 200#s.

The rear bumper protectors basically have a 3m sticky tape on the back that have a very secure hold. I just replace my rear bumper on my KIA Sedona and it was very very hard to rip off the old bumper protector. So they definatelly hold

Bottom line... if someone wants it bad enough and you leave it at your car it's entirely possible to steal it. Plenty of good suggestions here to deter. I used a padlock to keep the zipper together and also had plenty of strapping.

I have not received mine yet, but based on the pictures, I would think that a good cut resistant steel cable looped through a vehicle bumper or something similar (two cinder blocks is 80 lbs) with a strong pad-lock would at least deter a would-be thief somewhat. If a thief wants something bad enough they will find a way to get it. (Make sure that your system is listed on your homeowners insurance.) I plan on having a motion activated light & alarm aimed right at my charger as well.

Unfortunately it won't. You'll need a hard case, preferably a proper road case for that protection.

Hello, so I havent got this installed yet, I have a different code alarm on a different car, I can pop my trunk with my other one im not sure about the window thing ive never had a car where a remote unrolled my window, it should still pop your trunk.

One additional accessory to consider is the friction mount that sits on your dash. Many law enforcement people recommend against the included suction cup mount which leaves a ring on you windshield that attracts crooks. I put my friction mount on the floor when I park and carry the GPS in my pocket.

I don't totally understand what you mean. It holds tightly, but phone can be removed out. if not removed, the cover may hamper the phone when using car windshield mount.

Well, there should be a little plastic thingy somehow attached to your GPS, and that sticks to the glassy area of the dashboard mount, the same way your GPS gets attached to your rear windshield.

I don't think that it is theft-protected. It is very easy to remove from the trunk of the car, if desired, with out opening the trunk at all. I tried and succeeded. If you are worried about the area you live in---I'd take it home for the night, or just remove it and put it into the trunk. This bike rack is easy to install/remove.

I totally disagree. There is a 'webbed' material on the back that holds it in place on the seat....I'll tell you what compromises the effectiveness...seatbelts that don't immediate 'lock'...I had to swerve the other day and my grandaughters' car seat 'tipped' but the mat under it held in place and I feel it actually kept the car seat from tipping even further! I still stand by the use of my protector!

I'm not sure as if I remember the securing devices fit over a seat so unless your back seat is open on the back, don't think so. I gave mine away as my cat didn't like it, prefers sitting in the back window and on the front seat, and can't really look at it to give my opinion. Perhaps going to the manufacturer might be more help than me. Sorry.

This cover does not lock. You pull it out like a window shade and slides into slots on both sides. There is about a 2 inch gap between the back seats and where the cover starts - apparently some back seats recline requiring this space so there is limited visibility in that 2 inch space unless you cover the front edge of your cargo or modify the cover. My mechanic said most are designed like that due to the reclining seats. This is a deterrent, not secure if someone gains entry to the vehicle.

Hello Dianne--It should. However, to avoid the hassle of having to return it. I suggest cutting out a piece of paper to the dimensions the give and tape itto the place you want it to be. This is protector is attached with an adhesive backing. Sort of like lining the kitchen shelves. Hope that helps. I am glad I got mine. I keep cars for longer than most people and I'm glad to have the protection.

No sure, it likely has some protection but I doubt it would be substantial. Given the intended purpose (GPS devices, phones, etc.), I doubt you would have problem. Mine has so far held up quite well on my motorcycle, vibration, extreme temperature variations, rain, what have you...
