Which code label to choose and other questions
What is a VIN number?
Number of body internationally known as VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique global identifier of the vehicle. It also contains much information about the vehicle, the type of engine, body type, transmission and the serial number.
Pro and con at VIN code marking
Pro: The marking on all glasses of the vehicle ensures that
the police or the public can clearly identify a vehicle at any time, even if it
is locked – most vehicles have the VIN code already visible at the
windscreen. The thief also needs to replace all windows in case he decides to
replace the vehicle identity – to change VIN numbers.
Con: Any thief, with a good knowledge, can programm according
to the VIN code a key to the car or create a controller with unlocked original
Immobiliser, or he can decrypt exactly what the car has, that is often commonly
unidentifiable information, such as the swept volume or vehicle equipment (ABS ,
ESP), etc.
If you choose to cover the VIN code on your vehicle, mark the glass with
your own code. In case of car theft you can simply report it to the
police for easier traceability of your car.
Why don’t thieves like marked glasses?
The thief must change the identity of the vehicle after the theft , also the marked windshields. Changing the code on sanroof is almost insoluble problem.
Are there any insurance allowances?
Yes. The insurance companies give an allowance on marked vehicles, but there are individual conditions under which insurance companies give allowances. Contact the insurance companies.
