Tinted films deter burglars. A thief takes a look inside your car first before acting. Does he see anything of value in it? He enters the vehicle. But the tinted windows don’t let him see much. Result: he becomes discouraged and quickly moves on, looking for more interesting prey. And know that you can see perfectly from the inside what is happening outside.

There is therefore a good chance that the criminal will change his mind and take to their heels.
