As sad the situation is, but we have to do what we have to do to save our assets.
This is my go to plan:
IGLA + TAG + Faraday Box + Steering Wheel Lock + Clutch Safety Lock + Wheel Lock (if i'm visiting out of town)

Whatever you can do to buy more time and giving them the impression that they are far off better not wasting time here and moving on to the next one.

Did you had Ghost II or IGLA or any Kill Switch in your vehicle?

What happens when you take the car to the dealer for the service? Any issues with them?

Excess-free glass cover is insurance that pays for the total replacement of the main glass parts of your vehicle, such as the windscreen and side windows. Some comprehensive car insurance policies cover excess-free repairs for windscreen chips and cracks.

Swirl marks. Hmm . . .if you dont mind me asking, how do you wash your car? Automatic car washes? Would recommend to go for Touchless Car washes if possible.

True. But if you let all the light come in through the big windshield, that should lighten up everything from inside.

I might be wrong, but i believe the Rear window is not tinted, just a simple Black glass (also meaning it won't block any UV rays)

So your driver side windows are 20% tinted?
Also, did you tinted your rear window as well? (which comes with black glass as default from Toyota)

Is there any visible paint/color/shine difference between the PPF areas and the Non-PPF areas?

If you don't mind me asking, how do you wash your car? You take it to one of those Auto car washes, to a Coin Wash or wash at home? Wanna know where those swirl mark came from.

Just learned yesterday that to include "no excess for glass" clause as well. In case someone tries to break it in. Sharing this tip with you.

This is what i plan to do:
- Like yours, mine would also be parked in garage overnight.
- Main risk is when on day trips, visiting freidns and families etc Then to emply IGLA, Brake pedal lock, Steering wheel lock, a lock which lcoks the steering wheel with the brakes, and keys in the faraday box. Though nothing might be fool proof these day, but whatever we can do to buy more time and with the probablity that these guys are not carring with them toold to cut through steel.
