Could potentially put PPF on the inside and outside of the rear window to give it more strength and hold the glass together if someone tries to smash the window again

Wouldn't a simple mesh like a dog cage be much better for securing the rear window? Easier to see out of as well

You need to use some "anti-smash" film for the windows. I had to use it on my old Golf GTi because people kept breaking in to try and steal my headunit 🤣 Stopped a few attempts after I had that installed. Even if the glass breaks, the film holds it all together and they still can't get in, not easily anyway!

I don't think that window goes down and up, so why not fit it with Level 1 bullet proof glass. Meant for 9mm so it isn't very thick, but more importantly, it won't be able to be shattered.

replace the rear glass with shatterproof or reinforced glass. If you want to beef up the window just add a wiper spacer. it cannot be difficult .

@@michaelwebster6219i get what you mean but that’s the boot of the car, so why would anyone be back there? (unless being kidnapped). Plus this Defender only has the front seats and you can’t even access the back because there’s a barrier there. So the only way to really exit the car in an accident is through the front windows. Also what about vans, they have no windows in the back and isn’t this Defender classed as a commercial vehicle? So wouldn’t the rules be different?
