| GM's new windshield system
http://www.corvetteblog.com/archives...indshield.html
While this maybe a pretty cool idea, and it looks pretty cool too. But I wonder how much it would cost to replace if it was smashed or a rock chips it.

^ The piece of glass is still just a piece of glass.
It's only if you break those sensors, projectors and cameras when you'll end up with a hefty bill for repairs.

he's saying it's NOT a problem for the glass to shatter because it's the separate sensors, projectors, and cameras that would be expensive to replace. this was in response to a comment that it would be an expensive windshield to replace.

next is a jb detector installed in all gm cars.
not just that, but the glass would allow you to see through their skirts and short shorts, making their bush available.  | |

^ I think if you've set your handbrake tension properly, it should already begin to engage by the first click, and definitely not til 3+ clicks.

Nice try though. The car would just ding at you, and as soon as you start moving the DRLs would come on anyway. But.. there's one wire you clip and ground to fix that (and no, it's not the e-brake wire..)
