WHAT IS VIN ETCHING? VIN Etching is a way to mark your vehicle to make it harder for an auto thief to resell the vehicle or it's parts. VIN Etching uses a chemical to etch the Vehicle (VIN) numbers on all the windows of your vehicle. This process does not have any adverse effects on the windows, is almost invisible, and it is permanent. A sticker much like the Operation ID sticker used in burglary prevention programs is affixed to one of the car windows notifying a would-be thief that the windows are etched. The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) and law enforcement agencies nationwide, believe that etching your vehicle identification number (VIN) onto the vehicle's windows provides an important deterrent to auto thieves. Given the option, most car thieves will take a vehicle that is harder to trace, leaving an etched vehicle alone. VIN Etching is inexpensive, can be done in as little as ten minutes, is permanent, and may lessen the owners overall cost of insurance (if your insurance company offers a discount for having the vehicle etched). It is one of the easiest Crime Prevention tools to use; because once it is done it requires nothing of the vehicle owner to maintain it. |
