Yeah, I've had to replace a couple of windows in previous cars that I have owned. I learned two things.
1- Don't go for the after market stereo (unless you take the face plate with you every time you leave the car). After market systems are much easier for a thief to sell.
2- Don't leave anything visible through the windows that someone else might want. That means pretty much everything and don't think tint will help because a crack head will put his face on your glass to get a better look.
NaTuReB0Y is right about the cops. If they didn't take the whole car, the cops don't care.
