    I own a private security business, and we've taken some rounds to our patrol vehicles before. I'm thinking this behind the back seats and draped behind the driver seat would be not only lightweight but pretty effective. Maybe even stuffed into the door assemblies too, granted the windows still function.

      @@joschmo6020 with it being Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene, it doesn't need to be tensioned. It is essentially very small sheets, it's own weight could keep it taught enough. Maybe a strap or velcro on it to keep it from moving around while the vehicle is in motion. But under a bullet impact, tension is semi irrelevant.

    Maybe a bigger niche than you think. There are hundreds of documented and unsolved random CAR SHOOTINGS on the high speed roads in the US every year. Open the armor plate up, slip it between your seat and the door...and you've got some very convenient protection.

    I feel like body armor suffers from the same problems as suppressors used to have. People used to think all suppressors were whisper quiet. I think maybe everyone thinks body armor makes you an invincible tank if the bullet doesn't pass through the plate. It may stop the bullet but did it break 3 ribs in the process? I wish there was a way to test "ability to stay in the fight". If you are on the ground in agony and gasping for breathe, does it really matter it stopped the bullet if the bad guy can finish you off? I don't know any of the answers to this, I just wish there was more "is it really worth it in real life" discussions. Like what if the extra 12 lbs slows you down enough that you take a round that you otherwise wouldn't have if you were more agile?
