Could potentially put PPF on the inside and outside of the rear window to give it more strength and hold the glass together if someone tries to smash the window again
URBAN -It’s Mind Boggling that you have only got 106,000 Subscribers Because the Urban brand just oozes Quality & Class on all the Vehicles ! And Now youtube Friday for me is Looking Forward to the latest URBAN Vid ,because the way you present your youtube vids with ( Lenny ) and all the banter is genuine off the Cuff with Nooo script like most youtubers . What URBAN has done for the Land Rover brand is World Class !
Daniel got me here. I'm a bit or a Land Rover guy to. Take a look at the work and products from Sarek Automotive in the USA. Phenomenal design and quality!
Fair play chaps you really bring a Defender to life it looks so different from what you start with love those rims they really suit the car loved this episode nice to see a start to finish just for one customer! Another great episode already looking forward to next weeks 👌🏻
You need to use some "anti-smash" film for the windows. I had to use it on my old Golf GTi because people kept breaking in to try and steal my headunit 🤣 Stopped a few attempts after I had that installed. Even if the glass breaks, the film holds it all together and they still can't get in, not easily anyway!
Guys, come on. With all the kit you've got there. You could most definitely sheet metal that rear window up and paint match it. It would definitely be something commercial buyers would want as an option.
@@smcdetailing7921 👍Bang on with the sheet metal suggestion ! that’s what i would go for , with a gloss black film over the metal to try and make it still look like it’s Glass , and the have a rear View camera fitted like they do on the latest Ford transits vans , it’s set up with the rear view mirror So you still get a normal rear view mirror when driving around .
Could you not build an external cross frame with the ua shield in the middle , leave enough distance for the wiper or ditch the rear wiper . that would be a deterrent to breaking the glass. Great job irrespective 🙌
@@KB_187 you can't do that as it has to be a way for ppl to get out of ever a crash. Is plenty of ways to sort it but old Dan is to tight to spend coin
If U go back to the 1 where it was broken into last he is told that it has to be a exit so no cadge at back all locked up n what not daft UK rules again
@@michaelwebster6219i get what you mean but that’s the boot of the car, so why would anyone be back there? (unless being kidnapped). Plus this Defender only has the front seats and you can’t even access the back because there’s a barrier there. So the only way to really exit the car in an accident is through the front windows. Also what about vans, they have no windows in the back and isn’t this Defender classed as a commercial vehicle? So wouldn’t the rules be different?
Why not put solid metail plate in place of the window like a commercial and then just have a camera or a the cage design on the outside as a design element similar to youe design a little like they use to over head lights
Surely if you put a solid panel in the back, and wrapped it in a colour to make it look like glass, and remove the wiper, that would be the solution? As i know Si said the wiper is in the way, but you wouldnt need it anyway? 9:49
The hardtop is meant to be commercial, so why not just panel it and paint or wrap it the same colour as the car? Seems like you’re making this so much harder than it needs to be
Daniel " I never leave anything inside apart from smelly gym kit." Don't mention the 3 go pro cameras and control unit, then put Ashville on the front and back to make it harder to identify your motor 😂😂😂😂
Could they not just use a thicker tint on the rear glass as well as the new bracing , won't stop a toe rag trying to smash the window but may make it more difficult and more time consuming
All you had to do to take care of the back door glass was make the back door glass bullet proof and then no one could brake into the back door and it would not have changed the functionality of the back door
I'll assume that the rear window needs to be able to shatter in case someone is trapped inside for some reason, and that replacing it with metal would hinder resale? That's quality customization gents!
nah they obviously just couldn't be bothered replacing it with metal, a lot of modern cars have bunch of sensors around the rear window which would potentially require some software modification too.
I'll never understand why Dan didn't just replace the rear glass with sheet metal it's not like he needs to see out of it with reversing cameras etc, great job though guys @UA.
Do they not do some form of tough and glass what they do for bullet-proof glass, or just far too expensive. To be fair, Danielle The Rock can afford it, I like that
I don't think that window goes down and up, so why not fit it with Level 1 bullet proof glass. Meant for 9mm so it isn't very thick, but more importantly, it won't be able to be shattered.
FairPlay to Daniel for all he’s achieved and built. That’s a well deserved car. I always say, if you’re going to have a van, have the best one you can!
Joys of having to get a video out every Friday with a packed schedule…we’re only human and the team work hard to get content out every week to our audience
The whole thing is pointless anyway. He said he wanted something to stop them smashing the window. Which they'll still do. They wasn't robbing anything out the back besides gym stuff, so It's still the same outcome. He'll have to replace his back window 😂
if that back door is an issue for thief's should make a carbon door option with a full polycarbonate panel that cant be broken do the whoel door in poly with the cross brace urban on both sides so carbon would be the outer rim if you get what i mean be a very trick option to sell the clients . especially in high crime areas

Wouldn't a simple mesh like a dog cage be much better for securing the rear window? Easier to see out of as well
Yeah, and there's literally a type of bouncy glass you can put in as well, it's what police put on the sides of riot vans.
Poor people like yourselves will never understand class and decorum from your council house
That bouncy glass is called plastic.

@@pascalsauvage2275 So senor pascal, what is your portfolio like to be commenting on ones decorum 🤣🤣
@@pauledwards9493you can just further reinforce the glass with plastic
Corrupt frame at 18:05 guys. Bloody beautiful car, that cross bar is just.... *French kiss*
Love this and Daniel uses it properly, will be covered in mud in no time and still look great 🙌🏼
Absolutely!
That's a bloody lovely spec'd defender, looks mega! The cross bar with the logo on the back window and the rear wheel cover are stand out for me.
Glad you like it!
Would of added more bars to that window, massive gaps
🤣 Man said Readers Wives uno🤣...DEAD⚰
Beautiful design and great work . I like this car . (with a V8 of course) . Thank you for sharing the video.
Beautiful transformation, the defender is a masterpiece from LR and I just love what you and the team done to Daniels car.❤
Great episode love to see content with unique builds !
Thanks for the support 🙌
That’s quality.. Looks so good and the camera setup is mega 🙌🏼
Thank you 🙌
Geweldig! Hartelijk dank.
You’re welcome 🙌
Who's gonna let Daniel know that July 2021 to July 2024 is not "nearly 4 years" 😉
😂
lol
Should have had the question mark confused math calculations meme that Daniels team do to him all the time in his videos

Why can’t you remove glass and fix a insulated aluminium panel as the widow with a small camera hooked up to rear view mirror monitor?
thats what any normal coachbuilder would have done.
Shout out to uncle reece, that crossbar is genius 👏🏼, amazing car guys 🙌
He’s the man
Guys, come on. With all the kit you've got there. You could most definitely sheet metal that rear window up and paint match it. It would definitely be something commercial buyers would want as an option.
As a faber/welder this is a 30 min job to fabricate.

Ashville trailer next .. no waiting for 2027! .. good luck lenny and si 😂😂
Wow that car looks amazing Daniel is a very lucky man to have such a beautiful car
Thanks a lot 🙌
Great work guys, Daniels car is looking sweet! You guys are dwarfed by him mind you 😂
It’s camera trickery to make him look bigger, honest 🥲
replace the rear glass with shatterproof or reinforced glass. If you want to beef up the window just add a wiper spacer. it cannot be difficult .
hey there like the video.. just an idea, couldn't you put some Aluminum race mesh between the cross bar and the back window to make it even safer :D
Daniel deserves it💪
This is amazing.
You guys needs to start automobile company lol. 😊😊😊
LOL Readers Wives ......! ive not heard that in a while ! Love it ! Brill Ep chaps x
Could you not build an external cross frame with the ua shield in the middle , leave enough distance for the wiper or ditch the rear wiper . that would be a deterrent to breaking the glass. Great job irrespective 🙌
Surely there has to be a way to get some kind of toughened glass for the back window
@@KB_187 I’m sure I’ve heard of sheets of vinyl that stick to the inside of the glass that make it virtually unbreakable

Quality content as always 👌
Looks mean & aggressive. Love them wheels
Just needs a little roof beacon and it'll pretty much be perfect
Just clocked it. Simon looks like Erik ten haag
Could they not just use a thicker tint on the rear glass as well as the new bracing , won't stop a toe rag trying to smash the window but may make it more difficult and more time consuming
can you show us the set up of that camera and box 12:41full videos please
Still think the big man needs the bigger 110.. the 90 with a big man like that squeezing in..
What is the name of the unit on which the cameras connect to ?
Niiice.
Why don’t you guys do wiper? Delete?
Guys fit ballistic toughened glass to the rear of Mr ashfields car 😉😉😉
All you had to do to take care of the back door glass was make the back door glass bullet proof and then no one could brake into the back door and it would not have changed the functionality of the back door
Seems that's what LR looked to make the 2025 Octa!
Not sure why car gets broken into! I want a film studio in my car 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Would toughened glass not be an option for the rear?
Mega.
Why can't you do a locking wheel cover . Seems like a simple upgrade ?

do a union jack style brace x
Do they not do some form of tough and glass what they do for bullet-proof glass, or just far too expensive. To be fair, Danielle The Rock can afford it, I like that
Better off just forming some sheet aluminium there’s no point in a rear window if you have reversing cams
July 21 to July 24 definitely ‘nearly 4 years’ 😂
Toughened bullet proof glass, would be better than a cross bar.
Imo the best RUclips channel personalities combine to make an epic video. Great episode.
There's was smaller cams you can use to build into the car
What about bullet proof glass on the back window?
I don't think that window goes down and up, so why not fit it with Level 1 bullet proof glass. Meant for 9mm so it isn't very thick, but more importantly, it won't be able to be shattered.
Would a polycarbonate rear window not have worked with this project? That's basically smash-proof.
Where can I get that UA shirt???????
I’m confused 😂, Put the reinforced bar to protect rear but put 3 go pros in plain sight 🤔
What’s happened to bic?
Why don't you place a armoured class window (b4) in the back of Ashvilles car?
Lenny looks like a little boy next to Danny boy 🤣
Looks like my Mercedes Vito 😬😜😉
Bulletproof glass
12:47, Lennys face, DA FUQ you mean Daniel
D350 Engine 😮😂
For the rear window, can you not apply a film like a front windscreen has to give it strength and instead of smashing it’s just crack.
They only like sticking plastic to cars… not engineers
Daniel is a class act....
We agree 👌
FairPlay to Daniel for all he’s achieved and built. That’s a well deserved car. I always say, if you’re going to have a van, have the best one you can!
Crossbar looks legit 👍
Could you not of changed the window for a composite black window. Like race cars
💪🏽🇬🇧👍🏽
For such an intelligent man I'm surprised that Daniel thinks 2021 to 2024 is 4 years 😂
Prefer the original wheels TBH!, The rest of the build looks pretty cool though.
Great video and great looking car but that cross bar is pointless, unless, complete waste of time, effort and money!
😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍
Why not use bullet proof glass? Easy fix!
So he has the protection for the rear but what about the go pros? Are they detachable? If so, wouldn't the positioning angle change each time?
Warp Stabiliser strikes again lolololololololol
Joys of having to get a video out every Friday with a packed schedule…we’re only human and the team work hard to get content out every week to our audience
Surprised he didn't want to have something to keep people from stealing his spare tire covers.
I’m so confused, why could you not make up a piece to go on the inside of the window a whole piece covering it?
The whole thing is pointless anyway. He said he wanted something to stop them smashing the window. Which they'll still do. They wasn't robbing anything out the back besides gym stuff, so It's still the same outcome. He'll have to replace his back window 😂
Why dont you have a all metal back door easy
ffs, why can't you make the rear window bullet proof, thus non shattering....It's Daniel, he deserves that 😁there's also security ppf.
if that back door is an issue for thief's should make a carbon door option with a full polycarbonate panel that cant be broken do the whoel door in poly with the cross brace urban on both sides so carbon would be the outer rim if you get what i mean be a very trick option to sell the clients . especially in high crime areas
Wanting stuff that w3 don't do top tip start doing it then
ISNT THAT A BACK DOOR? THEY KEEP SMASHING HIS BACK DOORS IN 😅😅
