If you check out the website, the glass they offer starts getting pretty F'ing sick. especially when they start rating the glass next to the caliber rounds it stops.

Seems like pretty cool stuff.

It says that the 13mm glass will stop all that stuff, but what will the 6mm glass you were quoted for do?

Something tells me that the 13mm will fit without modification.

what if you're trapped in an accident, flipped over, sinking in water or some **** like that and you need to get out? kicking out the windows is no longer an option. just something to think about...

Very well could be, but lets assume its regular glass, is that something you could do yourself? or just have one of those run of the mill auto glass replacement spec's do it fer you? but i dont know how much it costs on average :/

The outside glass can still be broken by a would be thief. The polycarbonate will only keep the glass from caving in. You would then be faced with replacement of the broken glass. That would cost plenty.
